About My Clients
I have experience working with people who have struggled with depression, anxiety, bipolar, eating disorders, drugs and alcohol use, women's issues, teen issues, and life changes. I have experience working with teens (13+), adults, couples, and families.
My Background and Approach
I come from a diverse cultural background and having a personal, working understanding of the Mexican culture. I have experience in working both in outpatient and inpatient facilities, group homes, as well as correctional settings. I am independently licensed in Illinois and Wisconsin. I use a variety of approaches, but feel that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the one I use most. I educate my clients to learn and understand how our thoughts, feelings, and emotions are intertwined and if one of them is out of place, how that can affect the rest. My goal is for my client to learn a variety of skills and techniques that are useful to them outside of therapy, for the rest of their lives.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe as humans, we are ever evolving and changing with our environments. Therefore, we ALL experience some kind of stress or turmoil at some point in our lives. Depending on how we react to those stressors, can strongly determine just how good (or not good) that we get through them. I believe that people who chose to come to therapy, are so strong and resilient. They're opening up the door to their innermost secrets or things that are bothering them. By allowing me to assist in this process to get past this experience or phase, I will not judge. I will be there for you 100% and help you overcome the hurdles that you may need help with to reach that finish line.
