The challenging part of starting therapy is finding a therapist with whom you feel compatible. As a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I understand how important this process can be. The first step is searching for a therapist, which you are doing, so kudos to you for starting this journey! Life is challenging, and trying to understand all the emotions that life can bring is overwhelming. My priority is to provide a nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe discussing your challenges, goals, and overall life.
My therapeutic approach is always tailored to my client's needs. Self-determination and a strength-based approach are the keys to my practice as I incorporate therapeutic techniques such as CBT, Psychodynamic/ Relational therapy, Motivational, and Mindfulness interviewing.
I have worked with people of all ages to help them become better versions of themselves while incorporating psychoeducation. Working with diverse populations across multiple settings and encouraging my clients to heal from the past, live in the present, and plan for the future are my principles.
