What should a new client know about working with you?
Hello! Welcome to my practice. My name is Cristina, and I am here to help and support you. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in codependency recovery, relationship issues, personal empowerment, and learning to live and cope with anxiety and depression. I have worked with individuals, children, couples and families in a therapeutic setting for the past 4 years. I graduated with a Masters degree in Holistic Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University.
I have a client-centered approach to therapy sessions. I focus on the whole client and specialize in codependency and personal empowerment to enhance my client's ability to live and cope with various mental health challenges. I create a caring, safe and empathetic environment during sessions. I focus on you, your needs, and work with you to create attainable goals to work towards together. You will be supported and guided through the entire process. Therapy and healing can feel scary and isolating at times. I ensure you will feel partnership and guidance from me as you navigate your healing journey.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
