Hi there, I'm Esmeralda!
I have over ten years of experience as a therapist. I have recently taken a focus on new mothers suffering from perinatal mood disorder (PMD). I use laughter whenever possible to foster a strong relationship with my clients and uphold growth/accountability through the application of CBT skills.
My focus
An ideal client is someone who is comfortable being transparent, who is able to share about who they are, what they have been through and what they need but also someone who is open to reflection and whenever needed provide feedback for me to optimize their care.
My approach
I take a clear and direct approach with a lot of cushion. I like to have a direction for each session but i am also flexible. My motto in therapeutic change is through Honesty and Intention.
