Hello there, I'm Nubia. Does it feel like life is becoming unmanageable and an overwhelm has taken over your ability to engage in your daily routines, maintain a work-life balance or even enjoy things you used to like doing? Is the overwhelm also affecting your relationships with loved ones and friends, often stopping you from joining others and you find you're spending more time alone? Most of us at some point in time will feel some of these uncomfortable emotions that can take us out of our center and lead us astray, sometimes even to dark places. I can help to bring back some stability through understanding, self- exploration and empowerment. I've been a practicing psychotherapist for 17 years and have extensive experience working with youth/children and adults. Whether you are dealing with mood instability, anxiety, relationship discord or a sudden disruption in life, my approach to working with you is always person-centered, strength based and emotion focused in order to restore and bring balance back to your life. I invite you to stop by and let's talk about it...
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I am a trauma informed therapist and have extensive training in trauma focused cognitive behavioral training, crisis management, EFT couples therapy (emotionally focused therapy), parenting and emotional regulation
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
15 years of experience working with youth, families and adults in different capacities and situations allows me to provide you with the best care that comes from extensive knowledge and experience in the field of mental health. I find what I end up helping people do most is to connect with themselves to make better choices and connect back with important people in their lives. I've been trained to practice trauma informed care which allows me to understand how traumatic experiences in life affect our internal process and our behavior as well as our relationships.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I have experience working with moderate to severe mental illness with children and adult populations and a large part of that work has been trauma focused.
