Hello I am Aida Sek, LCSW, a bilingual trauma psychotherapist, holding licenses in the states of Florida and Colorado. Some of my specialties include trauma, addiction and codependency recovery, PTSD resolution through EMDR, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, conflict resolution, multicultural and adjustment issues. Being born in Colombia, made me understand the value and importance of cultural, ethnic, and varied backgrounds, and recognize the multitude of strengths born from these areas. Specific to my practice, each client is met with a sacredness regarding their culture and background, holding the client in unconditional positive regard.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
So, if you’ve made the decision to seek help, you should know just how much strength you truly have. I follow a strength-based therapy approach that is built on the foundation of a respectful, authentic, collaborative, and loving relationship so that my clients can feel safe and valued. My goal is to provide an environment where you can trust that you will never be judged for speaking freely and honestly. In our first session through a collaborative, holistic and client-centered approach, we'll have the opportunity to know eachother and then dive into the specific challenges you are curently facing.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Through my experience I have learned to utilize an integrative and eclectic approach to assist clients identify their paths to well-being, finding hope and revealing the most authentic versions of themselves overcoming , trauma, depression, anxiety, isolation and addiction.
