Hi there, I’m Raquel. Do you get overwhelmed by feelings of anxiety, depression, and low self-worth? Do you feel like no matter how hard you try, you will never be good enough? Are you struggling to find satisfaction in your life? I help women in all stages of life to discover their strengths and resources to become the version of themselves that they want to be. Together we will identify maladaptive thoughts and habits that create barriers to meeting outcomes and replace these with more balanced thinking and behaviors. I use a mix of Cognitive-Behavioral and Solution-Focused modalities to get to the root of core beliefs that get individuals stuck in daily living, while also engaging in resource talk that instills hope for a preferred future. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, or just the difficult changes that come with life, I’m here to help you. Therapy can be a process that feels uncomfortable but it can also be so rewarding and life-changing. The decision to seek help is a difficult one but be assured that it is the right one. I will provide a listening ear and an open heart as we dive in together to help foster healing and growth at a pace that feels comfortable to you. Let’s work together so that you can begin living life to the fullest.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, talk through any pertinent information such as family and childhood, past experiences with mental health challenges, and strengths that have helped in the past. Then we will dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have worked with a variety of clientele throughout my 18 years of experience. However, my passion is in working with women who struggle with the daily demands of life and the toll that it can take emotionally. As a therapist, I ask really good questions that are aimed at helping clients identify their desired outcomes as well as resources that are already instilled in them. I am a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP), a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), a Level 1 Certified Solution-Focused Brief Therapist, and an ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider (CCSP). I also am fully bilingual in English and Spanish and can accommodate the language of your choice.
