Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT) Therapists in Mamaroneck, NY

As a first generation US born Latinx female, I️ understand the complexities of life both lived and learned. I️ believe that individuals need space and time to feel comfortable to talk about their deeply rooted concerns. I subscribe to a 'relevant to the patient' technique, and I draw from the following treatment modalities of therapy; Humanistic Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Gestalt Therapy.

I help adults transform their lives by focusing on improving their relationships, their emotional well being, and following through on what brings them a sense of meaning. Working together we will identify steps for coping with distress, honoring boundaries, and developing self-trust. Going to therapy is one way to move your life in the direction you want. With support and a greater understanding of the mind/body, it is possible to shift your focus onto what is working in your life, what is in your control, and see where you have choices.

Perhaps you are experiencing stress in your days, have relationships filled with conflict, or are not feeling passionate about your career - thinking your goals seem out of reach. A total approach through clarifying your needs, identifying your goals, managing stress, increasing coping skills, and improving relationships, comprehensively we will make strides towards greater overall life satisfaction. Collaboratively we will create functional habits and make positive changes, by overcoming mental/emotional obstacles which prevent you from living your best life. The psychotherapy process will support you in addressing challenges which prevent you from living authentically and becoming the best version of yourself.
