My Background and Approach
I typically utilize CBT in my work as I am learning about clients and long held beliefs whether from society or family that shapes the outcome of what we're dealing with today. I focus on making long term changes by using narrative therapy in helping the client to take on their own story instead of what they perceive to be written for them. I also like to use solution focused therapy to determine how to realistically help my clients achieve what they're after. I use expressive techniques such as literature, writing and art and mindfulness to help my clients gain a better understanding of how to move forward or begin healing some old wounds of the past. We adapt as needed and see what will best benefit them. My experience has primarily been in substance use, education and legal adjacent in regards to substance use disorders. I am here to support clients during whatever phase of life they are in.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a former educator I have had long standing beliefs of acceptance and the historical impact of society as it is today with respect to different world cultures. I am a first generation Latinx identifying woman who has lived within the space between being of mixed race and cultural background. My background is shaped in social justice of those marginalized communities we exist in and need connection within our communities to succeed.
