I am focused on providing a collaborative and person-centered approach for those seeking therapeutic services. There is no "one-size-fits-all" philosophy in counseling and each person deserves an individualized process that can help with developing tools in order to better cope with life stressors or transitions. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment throughout each client's journey towards finding clarity and stability in their lives. Everyone deserves to find the confidence in themselves to further their personal or professional goals in life.

My counseling approach is client-centered and goal-oriented. By definition, this allows individuals to experience "growth and fulfillment" by actively participating in his or her own therapy in order to create change. Often, we lose hope at thinking that things could ever be different. We try and struggle and sometimes fail. But, you have an opportunity to think differently, relate differently, and transition from negativity to positive behaviors which will result in a powerful sense of self and promote strong interpersonal relationships.

I am a bilingual therapist with experience working with children as young as 8 years old, families, and individuals. My approach to counseling is client-centered and collaborative, meaning that you are involved in every aspect of your treatment and we work as a team to help you reach your goals.

I assist people in self-observation in order to feel less overwhelmed which improves coping, relationships, and quality of life.

Mental health may be our most vital quality. Not maintaining it well can lead to anxiety, depression, stressed relationships and even substance abuse. We can suffer greatly from even the smallest of flaws. Thankfully, mental health can be mastered by almost anyone, usually in six sessions. Firstly, making high quality decisions, even when stressed, can help. In fact, quality decisions, especially under pressure, will reduce problems, stress and improve our health in general. There is a simple, effective and lasting way to improve decision making, reduce stress and master your mental health: Cognitive Education Brief Therapy (CEBT).

Welcome! My name is Margarita and I have one main vision for all of my clients, to improve their emotional intelligence. Individuals that learn how to train themselves to think are on their way to a healthier mind and improved well-being.

Change requires a commitment. A willingness to grow, recognize issues, learn, and use previous strengths to cope. It is not always a simple process, but, it is an opportunity to heal. Therapy can be that change agent, even when times and situations seem almost too difficult to cope with. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, as well as a Registered Mental Health intern. My clients are adult women and men, adolescents (ages 15-17), and couples and families.

Reaching out to a therapist to receive therapeutic services can help you and/or your loved ones to blossom into happy and healthy minds. I am here for you!
