Hola! My name is Paola Leon and I am a Latina, Marriage and Family Therapist. I specialized in working with children, teens and young adults who are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, emotional/ behavioral issues and trauma. Wether you're a First Gen students who is having difficulties with transitioning phases in life such as a new job, quitting a job, entering grad school, or are having difficulties in your home environment, I am here to help! Are you or your child having difficulty sitting still or having difficulty concentrating? Are you or your child noticing increased moments of sadness or even increased isolation?
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Art therapy, Play therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Strength-based Solution Focused and much more. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR).
I believe the biggest and most important step for change is reaching out for help. I will assist you in identifying triggers, labeling feelings and emotions, help you process unhealed traumatic experiences and provide you with psychoeducation. I am an advocate of the LGBTQIA+, Latinx community, and speak Spanish. Call for your free 15 min phone consultation!
