Hi there, My name is Miriam Barton and I am a bilingual English and Spanish Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist residing in beautiful San Diego, California.
I feel that it is a privilege to work alongside our clients helping them as they navigate through life's challenges. As your therapist, I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where you can work toward healing. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with day-to-day life stressors, relationship distress, or interpersonal conflicts utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy, and Family Systems model.
First session
My communication style is nurturing, honest, and gentle. Therapy can be difficult and my hope is to create a trusting environment that can facilitate opportunities for growth and change. What you can expect from our first session together is for us to spend the majority of our time talking about you. I would like to get to know you and understand what life circumstances brought you to therapy today. I would likely ask questions to better understand how you are feeling and build an initial connection with you.
Strengths
I take pride in creating a safe space where my clients feel heard and can access their strengths to help promote growth.
