In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In the first session, it is important to identify reasons that services are requested and specific barriers that the client may be having in daily functioning. It will be largely gaining symptomology and information for a diagnosis which will help generate goals but the pace and discussion will be based on the client's comfort level.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have found that one or two goals focusing on daily functioning are associated with an overarching goal that leads to lifelong stability and consistent use of coping skills/ resources best serve the client. These goals are identified in collaboration with the client and can be adjusted to fit their needs as they change over time.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have worked with a wide variety of clients both Spanish and English speaking. I've worked with clients from the ages of 6 years old to 60 years old on a variety of conditions, including anxiety, autism, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
