Getting to know Guadalupe Mejia-Sarabia

I’m passionate about helping others process trauma and support others in cultivating healthier thought patterns and behaviors through cognitive-behavioral techniques. My clinical practice philosophy is to start where the client is, acknowledging their past experiences and trauma, and bringing it into practice to help heal and live a productive and progressive life. I believe in people’s resilience and self-determination to be the most important tool in any therapeutic recovery. My approach I help individuals navigate life transitions, anxiety, and trauma through a client-centered and collaborative approach, providing a safe and supportive environment for healing. Using EMDR in trauma-focused therapy helps to process and target the client's trauma, which can help bring change and grow into a new, healthy lifestyle. My focus I work with young teens and adults who want to learn more about managing anxiety, life adjustments, and those seeking support for self-esteem issues. I collaborate with those who are working through trauma, creating and planning coping skills, or setting personal goals. I’ll work with you to create a plan for growth that feels empowering and achievable. My communication style I make it a priority to bring in clear, open communication to create a safe environment free of judgment. Active listening and being present during sessions are my main focus when communicating with my clients, while also providing opportunities to reflect on their experiences with you as an empathetic therapist. I strive to be calm and patient as we work through your stressors and through finding solutions at your pace. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into becoming a therapist started with wanting to help others and find their innate resilience through their own personal journey. The talents and wisdom I have gained from personal experiences have led me to become a helping hand to those who are feeling challenged in life.
