Hi there, I'm Carmen!
I work with preteens, adolescents, and adults using evidence-based practices to help foster growth by allowing my clients to explore themselves without fear of judgment. I emphasize empathy, respect, and validation, ensuring that my client feels heard and understood.
My focus
My style is effective for individuals of all ages experiencing emotional dysregulation, interpersonal difficulties, and self-destructive behaviors. I feel comfortable working with anxiety, depression, self-destructive behavior, substance abuse, and impulsivity.
My approach
My approach varies depending on each client's needs. Most frequently, I use Internal Family Systems to help clients build understanding of their reality while learning strategies to manage overwhelming emotions, improve relationships, and create a more balanced life.
