LPC, 6 years of experience
Hello! My name is Guadalupe, I am a Catholic Licensed Professional Counselor who has experience working with diverse populations. My approach to therapy entails collaborating with you as an individual and working together to navigate towards the root of the issue. During our sessions, you are in control – we will only go as far as you are willing to. However, as your therapist, it will be my duty to carefully prod and inquire in certain instances to help you in your healing process. This may sound uncomfortable, even scary, but I hope you learn how discomfort may bring changes to your emotional stability, general happiness, and overall mental state. If you have come this far to search for a therapist then there is a part of you that is conscious of a living experience absent of these burdens: it is that same part that believes and hopes on that version of you. Consider then listening to that inner voice that is yearning to be known. ¡Hola! Mi nombre es Guadalupe, soy una consejera licenciada profesional católica con experiencia trabajando con varios casos. Mi estilo de dar terapia consiste en trabajar contigo como individuo y juntos empezar ayudarte navegar hasta llegar al problema principal. En nuestras sesiones tu estas en control y solo navegaremos cuan tan profundo ellas quieran ir. Aunque, como tu terapista es mi deber cuidadosamente influir a esas partes que probablemente te detienen ocasiones para ir a lo profundo para que puedan empezar a sanar. Se que pueda sonar algo miedoso, pero puede ser más miedoso si no lo haces. Para este tiempo probablemente ya te diste cuenta del resultado si sigues haciendo lo mismo que has hecho hasta hoy…porque no consideras entonces escuchar a esa parte de ti mismo quien está deseoso por ser conocido.
Our first session will consist of me asking you additional questions from the intake for clarification, or if you decide to skip filling the intake I will ask you basic questions to learn about your history and other details as part of a regular assessment. Then we will concentrate most of the session on what you are dealing with. We will end by formulating some goals based on what you will like to get out of therapy. In addition I ask my clients to please fill out a Schema Inventory that I share following the session, as this will be very valuabe in your healing journey. Nuestra primer cita consistira de una entrevista e evaluacion sobre su historia personal, familia, y otras preguntas basicas relacionadas con las formas de admision. La mayor parte de la sesion nos enfoquaremos en el problema o situacion que lo a traido en busca de terapia, despues de las preguntas basicas. La sesion la terminaremos formulando sus metas personales de la terapia. Tambien, les pido a los clientes que llenen un cuestionario de Esquemas que es bastante valuoso en el tratamiento, en su propio tiempo (opcional).
If you have been struggling with mental health problems for a while, you’re most likely familiar with the complexity of depression, anxiety, anger, and trauma and how they can all intertwine. It can feel like a roller coaster at times, where one may feed into the other, making it harder to know exactly what you are dealing with. For this reason, I will teach you CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) skills to re-frame thoughts, change habits and aid you in understanding the relationship between them. I will also be implementing Psychodynamic techniques to help us understand the role your subconscious plays behind your actions. Finally, if you are willing, (but is especially important,) we will revisit childhood memories that you may have thought were insignificant but likely have had profound impact on the person you are today. I have training in Schema Therapy of which I include also. Si llevas tiempo combatiendo problemas mentales probablemente ya has experimentado su complexidad y te has dado cuenta de que pareciera que la depresión, ansiedad, enojo, y trauma esta todo combinado. La ansiedad se vuelve depresión, después enciende el trauma o viceversa y te confunde sin saber que realmente es el problema. Un solo tipo de terapia no es apto para todos, por esta razón combino una variedad de técnicas a medida que avancen las sesiones. En las consultas, aprenderá métodos de CBT o terapias-cognitivo-conductuales que le ensenará como cambiar su manera de pensar, le ayudará a cambiar hábitos y entender la relación. También usare técnicas psicodinámicas para entender como su subconsciente o inconsciente influye sus acciones. Finalmente, si lo desea y cual es muy importante, podemos recorrer a las memorias de su niñez, esas que probablemente ha asumido insignificantes pero que en realidad han tenido más impacto en la persona que es hoy. Tengo certificacion en Terapia de Esquemas, lo cual tambien uso.
While I have enjoyed working with a variety of different population demographics, ranging from children and adolescents, to adults, seniors, and the military, I prefer to work with the adult population. I have combined experience in both individual and group therapy. I have had the privilege to treat active duty and veterans as well. Although I do not currently have any specific combat-related trauma training I have been able to help several veterans dealing with guilt, anger, and childhood/adult traumas. I do have a background education in Theology based on Catholic doctrine and therefore my approach to counseling is influenced by an understanding of human anthropology through a Christian lens. If you are Catholic or Christian and want counseling with the faith, please let me know during your first consultation. Thank you and may God Bless you and guide you in choosing a suitable therapist. Aunque he trabajado con diversas populaciones incluyendo niños, adolescentes, personas de mayor edad, y militar mi preferencia es trabajar con adultos. Tengo experiencia dando ambos terapia individual y en grupo. En el pasado he tenido el privilegio de tratar a soldados activos, veteranos y aunque no tengo certificación en específico a tratar traumas relacionados con combate he podido ayudar a varios veteranos que tienen problemas con culpa, enojo y traumas de niños o adultos. Tengo educación en materia Teológica de doctrina católica y por este motivo la terapia que doy viene atreves del entendimiento de antropología humano cristiano. Si usted es católico o cristiano y le gustaría obtener consejería en acuerdo con la fe, por favor déjemelo saber en su primera consulta. Gracias, que Dios le Bendiga y le guie en escojer un terapista apropriado.
I have experience working with Adults, Depression, Anxiety, Anger, Christian, Catholic, and Military.

Ms. Flores is so warm and easy to talk to, and I love that she draws upon Christian values along with a psychological approach. She makes you feel comfortable, heard and seen. She validates my feelings and challenges me in ways that help facilitate healing and transformational change.

Great listener, easy to understand, and will give you the best feeling after every session. I am so glad Guadalupe was put in my path. I feel I have grown so much because of her and I can not thank her enough. She is very intelligent and very confident in the therapy she provides. I will use every tool she has given me, and also share this knowledge of understanding human interaction for the rest of my life. I know I will have a very fulfilled, satisfying, and blessed life because of it.
