Hello, my name is Sheila (she/her/ella), and I am a Cuban-born Family Therapist, specializing in trauma and relationships. I hold national certification as a Trauma Specialist and have extensive experience working with individuals of all ages. I also have experience working with couples, families and separated families. I use a variety of different approaches depending on the client's request.
I offer a 30 min. free session in order to evaluate your needs, and determine if we are a good fit. After that, you can expect our first session to be a more in depth getting to know each other session, as well as going over what to expect from the process. Here we will also work collaboratively in how to proceed with treatment
My greatest strengths as a provider are my empathy skills, my past life experiences that provide me with more in depth understanding of yours, and my charismatic personality. I also speak Spanish, and have in depth knowledge of different cultural backgrounds.
