Hi there, I'm Margarita!

I work with adolescents and adults and specialize in trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, and couples counseling using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I approach my work with motivational interviewing and a client-centered approach.

My focus

I can work with most clients, although I typically work with individuals with acute depression and lifestyle changes.

My approach

My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client I work with. I can be eclectic in my approach, although I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, as both modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality and allow us to work together to chart a path forward.
