| Español | Français Our goals in therapy are to make dynamic changes in your life, or learn to face uncertainty with emotional resilience, to thrive and flourish even after trauma or loss. I offer a dedicated, experienced and professional listening ear, compassionate spirit, and a clear, supportive guiding voice. Learn to develop your strengths, coping skills, and improve your energy. Our focus is to change, to solve the problems at hand, and to learn how to problem solve for the future, and create lasting differences for an improved lifestyle. Hablo Español, Je parle français. Tagalog and English spoken here.
Diagnostics help name the problem, whether it is depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship or organizational , I am a very experienced diagnostician with strong clinical acumen and compassionate insight. Once problems are identified, the dynamic work ahead is to learn what to do, how to address problems, when and what to change.
Whatever our path in life, we all can use a safe, think out loud, emotional space, with a professional listener who actively listens with compassion, clinical acumen and well founded treatment techniques. Anxiety and depression, post trauma recovery, facing life changes and turmoil with resilience are welcome here. Français Español Tagalog Spoken here.
