In our first session, we will begin with a introduction as well as questions that will help guide our further sessions. Then we will be able to dive into specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a more tailored plan that we can work through follow up sessions.
Having worked with different clients for the past 7 years I have been able to develop a playbook on how to identify roots of certain challenges and create a plan/goals that lead to wanted changes/new goals.
I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, strength based approaches and utilize a collaborative and compassionate approach to therapy. The goal is to provide and foster hope, start a healing process and gain resilience. I also strive to provide emotional support and guidance to adults and young adults specifically, focusing on adjustment issues and significant life changes. I aim to empower my clients to create space, balance, time, and strength to process growth.

Diana is helpful and listens. She validates how I'm feeling and guides me towards "wins". I'm just really thankful I found someone who I can be myself with... she gets me.

I've been working with Diana for a few months now, and she is exceptional. Diana is very warm and intelligent, and helps me reframe my thoughts and ways of thinking to see a different perspective. As a first generation, daughter of Hispanic immigrants, Diana understands a lot of my foundational upbringing which helps immensely in our sessions. I would highly recommend Diana to anyone looking for self-empowerment and support in their personal life and relationships.

This was my first therapy session in about 4 years, and I am excited to embark on this journey! Diana was very warm and empathetic and I feel we set a good framework and foundation with our initial meeting. I'm looking forward to working with her towards my goals!
