Hi, I'm Susana As a therapist, I pay close attention to the details to fully understand a client's unique experience. I understand how difficult it is for a person to deal with negative thinking patterns and I am here to offer a helping hand in hopes of improving your quality of life. It is worth making the connection and considering professional help.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My approach is a compassionate, non-judgmental, and caring way of being. Working with me can give you clarity about the past and a new understanding of yourself in the present so you can build a brighter future. If we work together, you will be able to understand yourself more deeply so that you can heal, grow, and make positive changes.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
My passion has always been to help and guide people going through difficult journeys. My preferred therapeutic approach is CBT- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to develop solutions so people can identify and transform their way of thinking to be more positive. I also utilize Motivational Interviewing techniques to help in resolving ambivalence and finding more internal motivation. Also, I am bilingual- Spanish -Proficient in writing and speaking the language. Treating clients- ages 18 and up in New Jersey.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I know it will be difficult to start building rapport- however I am easy to talk to- it is normal to feel nervous, strange or uncertain about what to say. I am not perfect however I am congruent on being myself around my clients.
