Priscilla Mendez
Hello, I an very much looking forward to working with you. The work I do focuses on the here and now, finding practical solutions to current stressors and grounding yourself in the process as you build confidence in achieving your goals.
First session
Our first session gathers a history of your therapy experiences, and getting a better idea of the context in which you’re struggling todsy
Strengths
Often times there is a lot we are already doing really well, but our anxious minds shows the highlight reel of what we’re struggling with. My approach uses a strengths based perspective to recognize your own resilience and skill set, on which you can build confidence in working through life’s stressors.
Ideal clients
My ideal client comes to therapy ready to do things differently- whether that is a change in mindset, an unhelpful pattern, or trying a new approach, it is the willingness to sit with the discomfort of change that can truly be the turning point to our healing. In this work, we will slowly confront these things together in a way that works best for you.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive behavioral therapy is like collecting data on your own day to day life. It’s noticing thoughts you have throughout your day, moments you feel triggered, and unhelpful patterns or reactions that keep us stuck. We look at these more closely in sessions, and identify how they’re related and, most importantly, where you have agency to adapt them.
