In what ways do your life philosophy and treatment philosophy overlap?

My life philosophy and treatment philosophy overlap in the idea that we do the best we can with what we know. Therefore, someone has the capacity to transform his or her life once he or she becomes aware of the barriers and limitations that hander his or her progress. Spanish Mi filosofía de vida y mi filosofía de tratamiento se superponen en la idea de que hacemos lo mejor que podemos con lo que sabemos. Por tanto, alguien tiene la capacidad de transformar su vida una vez que se da cuenta de las barreras y limitaciones que impiden su progreso.

In what ways have your personal experiences influenced your work with your clients?

Having a diverse personal experience growing up and throughout my life has helped me to be able to experience a wide range of situations which have allowed me to feel empathy with the client situation, which has helped me to build therapeutic relationships in which both parties benefit. Spanish Tener una experiencia personal diversa al crecer y a lo largo de mi vida me ha ayudado a poder experimentar una amplia gama de situaciones las cuales me han permitido sentir empatía con la situación del cliente lo que me ha ayudado a construir relaciones terapéuticas en las cuales ambas partes se benefician.

How do you determine therapy goals with clients? What does that process look like?

The determination of therapy goals is a collaborative process it goes back to the idea that the client is an expert in his or her own story, therefore we the client and therapist collaborates and evaluates what is best for the client’s life situation at any giving time. Spanish La determinación de los objetivos de la terapia es un proceso colaborativo que se remonta a la idea de que el cliente es un experto en su propia historia, por lo tanto, el cliente y el terapeuta colaboramos y evaluamos lo que es mejor para la situación de vida del cliente en cualquier momento.

I have experience working with individuals (adults and children) struggling with negative self-talk, parenting, oppositional behavior, anger management, grief, low self-esteem, depression, OCD, LGBT, mood instability, challenging irrational beliefs, anxiety, history of trauma, PTSD and identity development. I have received specialized training in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Behavior modification, DBT principal, narrative therapy, strength base therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution focus. I believe in life long learning to stay current with the latest techniques and approaches that contribute to improve people’s lives. When working with clients I strive to make the therapy experience genuine, positive, respectful, and safe.
