My name is Elvira Aleman Vaughan. I am a Christian counselor who works with adults who have depression/anxiety. If you prefer talk therapy I'll use CBT to help you get to the root of the issue. Or if you are open to trying a proven technique that is less conventional, I will use EMDR to help you heal and move forward.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In the first few sessions I get a case history, and we begin teaching relaxation techniques/resources to help you be able to talk about what is hurting you. We face the pain and this eventually takes the power away from whatever causes us pain - we become desensitized to it.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have experienced healing and continue to heal from my past. I understand what it is to hurt from trauma.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with adults who have experienced childhood trauma. The past affects our present and future, and we can move forward more peacefully once we begin addressing the past and healing from it. It may seem at first that talking about the past makes you feel worse, but avoiding talking about the past or repressing your past is what will keep you feeling badly.

My treatment methods

EMDR

I was trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy, however, I have found EMDR helps clients faster than CBT does.
