Perhaps you are going through a lot right now. The situation(s) are complicated and you just want to make some sense of it all. Maybe you know what you need to do, but some support can help. Our work together can be aimed at whatever we think is going to help get you to the next step or phase of wellness. If you want to feel better, you have already taken a great first step.
My specialties are mainly in grief/loss, drug and alcohol, general mental health, couples therapy, family dynamics, refugee/immigrant resettlement. I can offer all this in Spanish language as well.
If you are reading this statement now, you may not like feeling the way that you have been lately. You may know exactly what feelings those are, maybe not. In either case, sign me up. I want to help you figure out what is going on not just on the outside world, but your internal reality as well. Let's work together to make sense of those two and succeed.

I am able to pull specific skills from specific modalities that I have been trained in. I may see the need to utilize CBT to assist you in developing insight into potential maladaptive schemas you may have developed and challenge their current functioning/validity. We may then find DBT or Positive psychology to develop effective coping skills.
