I have expertise in a range of evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy, prolonged exposure therapy, cognitive processing therapy, motivational interviewing, and exposure and response prevention.
Therapy works best when there is a strong, trusting relationship between the client and therapist. My goal is to create a collaborative and supportive environment where you feel safe sharing your challenges and hopes for the future. I believe evidence-based therapy techniques are most successful when they are applied flexibly, taking the context of your life, personal identities, culture, and past experiences into account.

I especially utilize prolonged exposure therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), and eye move desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).
Hi, my name is Dr. Celia and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who opened my practice to help those who want to make a change in their lives. I specialize in working with trauma across the lifespan, which is how I know how significantly our brains and bodies can shift after a difficult event and/or a series of difficult life circumstances. Therapy is a space for us to explore how our past informs who we are. Being able to form meaningful relationships is a key part of our mental wellness, but it isn’t always so easy to do.

The people I work with sense a shift could be important. Their relationships seem to have a lot of ups and downs, they feel like they cannot control their emotions, and they sometimes experience unwanted mood swings. Specialized evidence-based treatment can generate a shift. They feel more centered in themselves, are less likely to be taken over by emotions, and can more quickly recover from intense feelings. Their relationships with themselves, and with others, improves. They gain a stronger sense of purpose, increased ability to communicate, more often avoid misunderstandings, and can resolve conflicts more quickly.
