Hi! My name is Evelyn Torres I am Licensed Therapist, Life Couch, Biblical counselor and Mentor with 20+ years experience. My life's purpose is to empower others with the knowledge and skills necessary to live a healthy and abundant life. In doing so, I developed a yearning to seek understanding to life's most challenging issues. Do these sound familiar? I'm overwhelmed, can't focus, too anxious and depressed. I've lost motivation and always feel tired. I feel like I am losing control of things. I can't seem to communicate anymore with my spouse. I don't know what I want anymore. Why can't things be better? Allow me to help. I'm passionate about finding you answers to life's most difficult questions. I specialize in using CBT as a start, with it's ABC Model on "Cognitive Functioning." I have broken down the each part emphatically by adding the STOP and THINK TECHNIQUE to question your thoughts, disprove the lies that cause confusion, disqualify opinions and avoid assumptions, all seeded by your thoughts. While striving to find a solution, and in it's absence a path toward acceptance. The longest path in life is from Denial to Acceptance while Resistance being it's culprit. Once you have discovered this Formula all will make sense and confusion will no longer exist. Work Experience: Licensed Psychotherapist #MH20051 experienced with varied populations; children and families with specialty in parenting, adults, and couples.
