New to Grow
I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Capella University and an M.A. in Counseling Psychology from the Alfred Adler Institute of Chicago. I was born in Havana, Cuba and I can do psychotherapy in both English and Spanish. I have worked with college age students, women who are struggling to balance family and career, couples counseling and the elderly.
I would like to get to know them and ask them what brings them into the therapy session.
I listen very distinctly to what clients bring into the therapy session and try to help them to resolve the issues that they are concerned with.
I am interested in helping individual clients and couples. One of my specialties is Geriatrics, as I worked with elders (65 and above), helping them with depression, anxiety, and adjustment issues. I have also worked with college age clients who are trying to determine career goals and couples counseling. Women's issues is another area where I have worked, especially women who are trying to balance career and family life.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have been using CBT in my practice for the past thirty five years. It has helped dozens of clients challenge recurring thoughts and manage their anxiety. I will use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact with one another. I will then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a more relaxed and less stressful life.
Adlerian
It focuses on overcoming feelings of inferiority, fostering social interest, and developing a healthier "style of life" to achieve belonging and community contribution. It is positive and encouragement-based.
