Hi! My name is Gloria Estrada, I am a Bilingual(Spanish/English) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I am a trained professional who specializes in helping children, adolescent and individuals facing various challenges and improve their overall well-being. My role is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can openly express their thoughts and feelings, explore their relationships, and work towards positive change. Through evidence-based therapeutic techniques, compassionate listening, and collaborative problem-solving, I aim to support clients in achieving their personal goals and fostering healthier connections with themselves and their loved ones.

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

In our first therapeutic session, clients can expect a warm and welcoming environment where they can share their concerns and goals in a confidential setting. I will take the time to get to know you, understand your unique situation, and develop a collaborative understanding of the issues you are facing. We will discuss your expectations for therapy, explore your background and history, and address any questions or concerns you may have. Together, we will work towards establishing a strong therapeutic rapport and develop a plan to guide our future sessions. It's important to remember that therapy is a process, and the first session is an opportunity for us to begin building a foundation of trust and understanding.

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

As a therapist, my greatest strengths are my warmth, genuineness, and empathy. These qualities create a safe and nurturing environment for clients to share their thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. The warmth helps clients feel comfortable and supported, while my genuine nature fosters trust and authenticity in the therapeutic relationship. The empathy allows me to deeply understand and connect with clients, validating their experiences and providing compassionate guidance. These strengths enable me to effectively support clients on their journey towards healing and personal growth.
