Do you feel alone, unheard, or overwhelmed? Often, we just need someone to listen and be present. My name is Margarita, and it is privilege to be a part of your journey by providing a safe space for you to feel heard and supported. Though vulnerability can be difficult, I do believe every person has the strength to rise above unimaginable boundaries. It takes courage and strength to seek help, and I am genuinely here to assist you in overcoming the barriers in your journey to healing.

My passion is to help people of all ages, in all seasons of life. I work with a wide range of issues including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, job stress, and relationship difficulties.

**I am in Lubbock but am not accepting new clients** Are you looking to discover solutions and to make changes in your life to feel better? There are times when life becomes difficult and I believe that asking for help is a sign of strength and bravery. It takes a lot of courage to change your life. Therapy is a collaborative process where you should feel safe to express, explore, and challenge your perceptions and experiences. I approach each client with empathy and genuineness. Feeling safe and trustful of the therapy relationship is important for you to explore emotions and thoughts that may have never been shared before this.

When experiencing feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and overwhelming worry it can feel as if there is a dark cloud hovering above. With the innovative use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, ACT, Solution-Focused, Positive Psychology, and Humanistic, a Holistic approach can be created to help care for our bodies and minds.

Are you or someone you know struggling with life's challenges? We all experience seasons in life where life gets too hard and the burden seems too heavy to carry alone. People who seek out counseling during these times are BRAVE enough to admit that it's okay to ask for help. Whatever you or your loved one may be going through, my hope is that you seek the help you may need and find what works for you!

Availability on the WEEKEND and in the EVENING (M-F). The relationships we have with both ourselves and our loved ones are our greatest predictors for happiness. We may struggle to embrace who we are or experience ongoing conflicts with those we love most. I will help you look at the options you have in your life, skills to deal with your challenges and assist you to find a path that will help you to be the best version of yourself. Getting to know you authentically is important to me. I will listen to your specific needs and tailor our sessions to meet what you hope to gain from therapy.

It is my belief that we all need help at sometime in our lives, but reaching out can be difficult. Issues around addiction, trauma, and Autism can seem overwhelming. I have a strong belief that clients have the ability to resolve their own problems with some assistance. I believe that through a strong empathic working relationship clients are capable of finding clarity and contentment in their lives. It is my job to help you through difficult times and provide you with the tools necessary to move on in your lives in a healthy way.

I offer therapy as a way of straightening out your life. I want to help you in developing and defining your goals in life and collaborate with you on ways to achieve these goals. My aim is to go through the difficulties of life with you and help you in understanding who you are and developing meaning and purpose around that.

My specialty is a client who has trauma, and they've have never had the help they need for it. They have depression and anxiety and want to lessen them and cannot remember key childhood memories. They may have sought counseling for, but they are still being triggered in their life, and still have not got the relief they so desire. They may have also struggled with substance or other abuse, and they may have given up, or are still seeking relief. The tenets of trauma are multifaceted and the person is impacted emotionally, physically, and mentally, and want to find out how to deal with their past/present to be happier and whole.

Do you have chronic pain and wonder if you can enjoy life again? Does your family struggle with addiction? Interested in reducing symptoms from a traumatic event? Trying to stop tobacco for health or prior to a surgery? Adjusting to mental illness/long term health condition and feel lost? It's my passion to guide you to a life that is as full as possible! I have been treating these issues, mood disorders, ADD/other adjustment disorders for 8+ years. My typical clients are young adults to Seniors. I see children/adults age 10 and over for chronic pain.

CURRENTLY ONLINE SESSIONS ONLY **First Care, BCBS, Superior, Amerigroup, TriCare, United Healthcare, Cigna to name a few** Services include Play Therapy for children and adolescents because the youngest among us communicate through play; and CBT /Trauma Focused CBT as I firmly believe thoughts determine feelings and feelings determine behavior. My goal in working with patients is to create a safe and inviting space to process personal traumas and to establish a trusting relationship through which painful events can be confronted. In our time together, we will invite hope into your circumstance. ***Call for availability***

I believe the counseling process empowers people and I consider myself a guest in the client's world. Using an integration of Humanistic and CBT approaches, emphasis is on the client’s process of self-discovery through direct experience. Thus giving the client the freedom to look within and then exercise freewill for change to occur.

Too often we go through life feeling less than okay. Many people never slow down to assess their own well-being. We settle for feeling less than our best because we haven't stopped to take a closer look and do the work within ourselves. If this sounds familiar, I can help. I believe that offering a nonjudgmental perspective to you can help you build the life you want. Trying to change all at once is overwhelming, but improvement in one area can often bring progress in another. I am here to be a guide in this process, whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, or another issue.
