Getting to know Carolina Palacios
Welcome! So, you decided to check this out? Carolina is glad you did. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix. Deciding to take on therapy can be a nerve-racking experience. Therapy is a place for you to express your thoughts and understand your emotions in a safe and supportive environment. My method is nontraditional in the sense that I engage in back-and-forth dialogue rather than the conversation being one-sided. My experience with community mental health and psychiatric hospitals influenced a Cognitive Behavioral and solution-focused approach. That means that the skeleton of what I do is skill-building. So I tend to sound a little like a coach. However, this does not mean we won't do some of that soul-searching stuff you see on TV. Yes, you all will dip into those past childhood experiences because they tend to have a huge impact on what we do today. I am working on an EMDR certification, which is a great modality that can help address those traumatic events. Not just those big traumas but the little ones too. Like the one with that nasty coworker or boss. Or the one where mom or dad called you that nickname you hate. Or that friend who you thought was your friend but wasn't. I love inserting humor, so please count on laughing, crying, or laughing and crying all at the same time.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The first session is usually about getting to know you and what your situation entails. We're developing a relationship and gauging if we would be a good match.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

I love that she's Latina and understands what I'm going through and how I express myself.
