Hi, I'm Giovanna Fattorini-Ocampo, a licensed therapist with an MA in Clinical Psychology. I have extensive experience working with adolescents, young adults, adults, and the elderly to address symptoms and issues associated with mood, anxiety, psychotic, personality, trauma, and substance use disorders.
My approach
My therapeutic approach draws from CBT, DBT, Client-Centered, Solution-Focused, Holistic, Harm-reduction, and Trauma-informed and Psychodynamic models. I focus on building rapport, understanding your needs, helping you find your strengths, and utilizing those strengths to overcome challenges.
My focus
I specialize in working with individuals, including adolescents age 13-17, on a wide range of issues: Addiction, ADHD, Anger Management, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality, Coping Skills, Cultural Stress, Depression, Divorce, Domestic Violence, Drug Abuse, Dual Diagnosis, Emotional Disturbance, Family Conflict, Gender Identity, Grief, Impulsivity, Infertility, Infidelity, Job Stress, Life Transitions, Marital/Pre-marital Issues, Mood Disorders, Older Adults, Personality Disorders, Pregnancy/Prenatal/Postpartum Concerns, Psychosis, Relationship Issues, School Issues, Self Esteem, Self-Harming, Sexual Abuse, Sleep or Insomnia, Stress, Suicidal Ideation, Thought Disorders, Trauma and PTSD, and Women's Issues.
My communication style
I aim to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable opening up. We'll work together collaboratively, but you will always remain in the driver's seat of your therapy journey.
My goals for you
I want you to feel proud of yourself for asking for and accepting support. My goal is to help you develop greater self-understanding, build coping skills, work through challenges, and ultimately improve your mental health and overall well-being.
My first session with you
In our first session, we'll focus on getting to know each other and exploring what brought you to therapy. I'll ask about your background, current struggles, and goals. This is also a chance for you to ask me questions and see if we're a good therapeutic fit. By the end of the session, I hope you'll feel heard, validated, and confident about continuing our work together.
