As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I provide compassionate, professional support to individuals seeking to improve their mental well-being. I help clients navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, and trauma, using evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe space where clients feel heard and empowered to foster personal growth, resilience, and emotional health.
In the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and non-judgmental space where they can share what brings them to counseling. I will spend time getting to know their background, concerns, needs and goals for therapy. This session focuses on building rapport understanding and assessing their unique needs, while also exploring how therapy can help. I will discuss confidentiality, explain the therapeutic process, and address any questions they have. Together, I’ll start outlining a plan for future sessions, ensuring clients feel comfortable and supported from the beginning.
My greatest strengths as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor include my ability to create a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment for clients. I am skilled at building strong therapeutic relationships, which fosters trust and encourages clients to open up. Additionally, I excel in using evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual’s needs, whether it’s Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, or trauma-informed care. My strength in active listening, emotional attunement, and providing actionable strategies for personal growth also stand out. As a solution-focused therapist and with the ability to communicate in English, Portuguese and Spanish, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. Overall, I empower clients to navigate challenges with resilience and self-awareness.
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I am best positioned to serve clients who are seeking support with anxiety, depression, stress management, ADHD, relationship issues, trauma recovery, or personal growth. I work well with individuals who are motivated to better understand their emotions, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and improve their overall mental well-being. My approach is ideal for clients who value a compassionate, evidence-based, and collaborative therapeutic process. I also excel in supporting clients through life transitions, helping them build resilience and navigate challenges with clarity.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Through Trauma-Focused CBT, my goal is to help clients process their trauma, restore their sense of safety, and develop healthier coping mechanisms, ultimately promoting resilience and recovery.
EMDR
Through EMDR, I aim to help clients process traumatic memories, reduce associated distress, and foster a sense of empowerment and resilience. This approach often leads to significant improvements in their overall mental health and well-being.
Christian Counseling

This approach emphasizes the importance of spiritual growth alongside emotional and psychological healing.
Play Therapy
As a licensed mental health counselor, I have extensive experience utilizing play therapy to support children in expressing their thoughts and emotions. Play therapy is an effective method that allows children to communicate through play, which can be more natural for them than verbal communication.

Roberta is amazing. She’s helped me so much. She’s so kind and listens so intently- she truly wants to help you with your struggles, help you understand them, and grow from them. I also was specifically looking for a Christian therapist to help me understand things better through the Word which has also help grow my relationship with God more. Thank you so much Roberta, I am forever grateful.
