Getting to know Carolina Villar Mendez

Hi there, I'm Carolina! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who has been serving our community for over 15 years. I am fluent in Spanish and my approach to therapy is truly eclectic, integrating different theories to better assist all my clients in their journey of improving their overall well-being! My approach My theoretical orientation is truly eclectic, integrating psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based, Cognitive Therapy, interpersonal, insight-oriented, client-centered, and multicultural theories. My focus I consider myself to be a generalist with experience in several problem areas related to young adults, mature adults, and elderly populations. I have a particular interest in the treatment of relationship concerns, sexual trauma, diversity issues, grief and loss, spiritual concerns, phase of life and adjustment issues, educational/career difficulties, anxiety, depression, substance-related issues, and family-of-origin concerns. My communication style I strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for all my clients hoping to develop the trust and connection needed to promote mental health. I am passionate about being a therapist and my compassion and willingness to help others is truly genuine. I speak Spanish and I welcome all individuals that are ready to work together to find the best approaches to improve their quality of life. My journey to mental healthcare I earned my Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology, as well as an Advanced Graduate Certificate in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialty in Alcohol and Drug Addictions from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I can honestly say that my passion and fascination with mental health emerged from the very first Psychology course that I completed. Throughout the years, I have seen the potential for growth and change that all of us possess; thus, it is an honor to assist my clients with such transformation.
