Authentic
Empowering
Solution oriented

In my 14 years of experience, I have worked with individuals who are feeling emotionally stuck due to sadness, irritability, relationship issues, anger, financial loss, unresolved trauma, loss of a loved one and/or anxiety. These emotions may lead you into a mental whirlwind which feels chaotic and uncontrollable. But know that you are not alone and there is hope. I will provide you with treatment focused on using evidence-based practices such as Mindfulness Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Based Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy. I will engage you in creating a treatment plan that works for you! I will assist you in identifying your interest of focus (personal issues), empower you to process and reach your goals as you achieve emotional stability in therapy.

Having worked with anxiety and depression for the past 14 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you identify the root cause of your challenges and create a tailored plan that leads to measurable success.

First session

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions then we dive into specific challenges you are experiencing. This will help us create a tailored treatment plan for us to work through in follow- up sessions.

Ideal clients

My ideal clients are facing challenges due to anxiety, trauma and depression. Individuals who are trying to break generational curses, overcome presenting problems and want to fulfill their life goals but do not know where to start. I am here for you! In collaboration to build a healthier lifestyle, our focus will be on addressing and managing your symptoms by using evidence-based practices such as Mindfulness- CBT, coping skills training, Solution Focused Therapy and outcomes based treatment plan mapping to help you meet your goals successfully. I look forward to meeting with you and getting started with therapy.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have been using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice for the past 4 years, to treat individuals who present with anxiety, PTSD, depression, anger, bipolar and ADHD. We’ll use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We’ll then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a less anxious and stressed life.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

In my private practice, the use of Mindfulness-Based Therapy is integral to the client's success in therapy. The approach assists in nonjudgmental understanding of the mind-body connection while keeping emotional equilibrium.

This being our first session; I was a little nervous, but she is truly authentic in her reactions and the way she navigates creating a plan. I am excited to work with her.

My initial session with Muriel was exceptionally positive. Despite experiencing a challenging day, she effectively de-escalated the situation and ultimately elicited a positive response from me. Her demeanor remained composed while I articulated my concerns, and she subsequently proposed a viable solution plan. Consequently, I have scheduled a follow-up session. I am grateful for her understanding and patience.
