About me

Hi! I'm Estela, Do you ever feel stuck or just have too much going on? Are you in a transition, or having trouble coping with life stressors? A high number of people experience these things in different ways; often times, they just need a reminder of who they are to help discover their own potential to move forward in life. I describe myself as gentle, non-judgmental, and empathic. I Iike to meet my clients where they are. Together, we will identify your strengths, explore your emotions, thoughts, relationships and experiences and come up with coping strategies you can use to feel more confident moving forward in life. I know it can be intimidating even making the first appointment, but it is through your first step that success will come.

During the first session, I will focus on establishing rapport and getting to know each other.

I primarily see individual adult clients. I see a diverse population of clients and have exposure to a wide variety of issues and diagnoses: anxiety, depression, domestic violence/trauma, work stress, parenting, relationship problems, grief/loss, chronic illness/pain, assertiveness/self-esteem, caregiver stress and life transitions (going to college, having a baby, getting married/divorced, moving, changing jobs). I like to integrate a variety of methods: Prayer, journaling, motivational interviewing, reflective listening and mindfulness.

What initially drew me to Estela is that her provider bio mentioned nature and spirituality, two pillars of my life. From our very first session, I left feeling heard, seen, and empowered. I appreciate that she is always punctual and she has been very accommodating too. I love that she has given me practical tools whether it be self-care, action steps I can take in specific scenarios, or journaling prompts for self reflection. I’m so happy I found her!
