Nidia Sarmiento

My communication style

I am warm, inviting, and encouraging, and I work to make you feel comfortable exploring thoughts, ideas, and feelings. I take a person-centered, come-as-you-are approach that is relational and nurturing. Clients say they feel relaxed in my space and comfortable with me. I also embrace humor and quirks.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always had a strong desire to help others individually. Growing up, I became aware of my abilities to listen and have empathy towards others' challenges. Seeing my clients gain confidence or find peace makes my work incredibly rewarding.

My goals for you

We will collaborate to identify and set goals that are important to you, such as communicating better, managing symptoms, or improving self-esteem and relationships. As we work together, new goals may arise as others are reached. I want to provide you with tools and confidence to reach your goals.

Our first session

In our first session, we will have the opportunity to get to know each other. We will discuss what brings you to therapy and your background. I want you to feel safe, and if you are nervous or scared, I will help you feel comfortable. We will collaborate and work towards your goals with each session. We will take small steps if necessary.
