Hi there, I am Alondra. Do you feel at a vulnerable, challenging, or difficult stage in your life? Maybe you are struggling with current or past relationships or life transitions? I want to help you feel welcomed, heard and validated. I will provide you with a safe space to voice feelings about those situations that are difficult to process. I have worked with teens, adults and families. My passion and calling is to help individuals dealing with overwhelming emotions, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression. I also specialize in maternal mental health and abusive relationship issues. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable or seen as a weakness. My goal is to provide a welcoming and safe space for my clients. We all deserve a safe space to learn, heal and grow.
In our first session together, we’ll start with brief introduction and establish rapport and a working alliance. Then we will dive into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions./ En nuestra primera sesión, comenzaremos con una breve introducción y estableceremos una buena relación terapéutica. Luego profundizaremos en los temas específicos. Esto me ayudará a crear un plan personalizado para que podamos trabajar en equipo.
Having worked with young adults and women for the past 7 years, I’ve developed a passion in helping individuals especially adult women in different life transitions. Most of my trainings and specialties are related on trauma informed therapy and relationship issues. I am also interested in processing acculturation and immigration issues. I speak fluent Spanish and understand Portuguese language.

Certainly! Emotional intelligence is a crucial skill that can greatly enhance one's quality of life. By learning to manage emotions, individuals can navigate the complexities of their inner world more effectively, leading to improved mental health and overall well-being. Techniques such as mindfulness, self-reflection, and stress management can help individuals identify their emotions, understand their triggers, and respond to them in a healthy, constructive manner. Developing these skills fosters resilience and the ability to maintain a balanced perspective even in challenging situations. In addition to managing personal emotions, emotional intelligence plays a significant role in resolving relationship conflicts. Effective communication, active listening, and empathy are key components that help individuals understand and validate each other's perspectives. When people feel heard and understood, it becomes easier to find common ground and work towards mutually beneficial solutions. Conflict resolution skills are essential not only in personal relationships but also in professional settings, where teamwork and collaboration are pivotal. Coping with grief or loss is another area where CBT can be invaluable. Grief is a complex and deeply personal experience that can manifest in various forms such as sadness, anger, or even numbness. By acknowledging and accepting these emotions, individuals can begin the healing process. Support systems, whether through friends, family, or professional counseling, provide a safe space for expressing grief and receiving comfort. Moreover, engaging in activities that promote self-care and emotional release, such as journaling, art, or physical exercise, can aid in navigating the difficult journey of loss. Ultimately, emotional intelligence equips individuals with the tools needed to face life's inevitable challenges with grace and resilience.
