Getting to know Cheryl Carrasco
Hi there, I'm Liz!
I specialize in helping people heal from difficult experiences and move forward from their past. Fluent in Spanish and bi-cultural, I bring a deep understanding of multicultural issues into my practice.
My approach
I use a strengths-based and humanistic approach, incorporating EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy to address anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I also work from a feminist perspective, believing in the power of open, meaningful conversations to foster healing and growth.
My focus
I enjoy helping people feel better! I work with clients experiencing PTSD, trauma, depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. I am comfortable assisting people recovering from difficult situations, whether assault, abusive relationships, or childhood abuse.
My communication style
My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where we can explore your experiences and help you build a stronger, healthier future. I discuss your thoughts and feelings openly-validation and empowerment are very important to me.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always enjoyed helping people. Besides therapy, I am a university instructor and conduct immigration and trauma evaluations. My academic background includes Bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Criminal Justice, a Master's in Social Work from the University of Nevada, and over 3,000 hours of clinical internship experience leading to independent licensure in 2016. I have completed coursework for a PhD in Psychology focusing on trauma and am currently working on my dissertation.
My goals for you
Collaboratively! You are the expert in your life. I am here to guide you, but you are the star of the show!
My first session with you
Lots of questions. I like to hear my clients' stories and encourage them to ask me questions too. I also enjoy helping educate and empower people. If this sounds appealing, check me out!
