Cristina Gloria
Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC, CCTP
She/Her/Hers
Life isn't easy and we are not born all knowing. Throughout our life span, we face exciting and terrifying situations that impact the way we function every day and how we interact with others. Then, we feel like we are the only ones suffering, and feelings of loneliness emerge. Our first reaction is to hide and portray that we are doing fine. Then we try dealing with the problem on our own. Later, we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed. We start experiencing extreme difficulties just trying to deal with simple daily life tasks. This is where I come in!
My 22 years of experience can help to empower you with the coping skills you need to face the aftermath of trauma, anxiety, family, marital, parenting, and acculturation issues. I provide individual, couple, and family therapy. I also provide immigration evaluations, and I am knowledgeable in how to help families involved with DCFS or in the legal system.
I am a bilingual (Spanish) LCPC. The therapeutic techniques practiced during the sessions are practical and easy if you have the determination to improve your life! I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy just to mention a few. Take the first step today and call me to set up an appointment.
