Bridgett Amezquita LMFT

In our sessions together, I will provide a safe and inclusive space for exploration and healing. When starting, I will work towards assuring rapport is built and will continue to aid in fostering a strong therapeutic alliance throughout our time together. Sessions will focus on helping you reach your goals for well-being all while guiding you toward autonomy. This is how I like to describe therapy sessions: You are the driver, I am the passenger. I will be there for the entire ride through every terrain and road. I will help read the map to provide directions, but it is up to you, the driver, to arrive at the destination.

I utilize compassion and empathy, evidence-based techniques, coping strategy teaching, thought-challenging techniques and thought logs, communication skills building, art and mindfulness to assist you in reaching your emotional health goals. If working with your child, I will create a safe and nurturing environment for your child/adolescent to express themselves and explore their emotions. I will utilize evidence-based interventions tailored to your child's unique needs, fostering emotional resilience, enhancing coping skills, and promoting healthy regulation techniques.
