Erin Mendoza LPC

In our initial session I will want to find out why you are seeking therapy, what your concerns are and what you want to work on. I will also ask some questions about your history and current social environment. From there we will decide what therapy technique(s) will work best for you. We will usually meet for about 40-55 minutes once a week.

Therapy techniques I use are: DBT- which is about helping you learn to: live in the moment, cope with stress in healthy ways, regulate emotions and have healthier relationships. Person Centered- I will encourage and support you as you explore your experiences to learn more about yourself, learn what you need, increase your self-worth, self-confidence and independence. Attachment therapy- explores how childhood experiences might impact ability to form meaningful adult relationships. EMDR/ASSYST- is used to process trauma and reduce symptoms of PTSD. CBT- explores the connection between thoughts feelings and behavior and works to recognize and change unhelpful thought patterns. Nurturing Families Program TM – “is a family centered trauma informed approach to build nurturing parenting skills as an alternative to abuse and neglecting parenting and child-rearing practices”
