Hello there, I'm Alma. I'm bilingual in English and Spanish. I have experience working with elementary-age children and young adults. I can help you manage anxiety to avoid burnout, and in children to avoid losing control of their emotions. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I integrate mindfulness to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you're dealing with being overwhelmed, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety, I'm here to help. You deserve a safe space to be heard, heal and grow.
In our first session, we’ll start with brief introductions and then explore the specific challenges you’re facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work though in follow-up sessions.
I have a wealth of experience working with parents who have challenges dealing with their children's behavior. I help children understand their emotions and feelings and help them manage them so they can succeed in school.
Children and adults experiencing feelings of anxiety or grief. Children having school related issues.
I use the DBT framework and skills in all sessions. The purpose is to help manage intense emotions/feelings and balance accepting who you are and the challenges you are facing.
