Getting to know Margarita Medina

Hi! My name is Margarita Yuri Medina, Ph.D. (c), LPC-S. I hold a Master's in Psychology from the University of West Georgia. My approach is humanistic, specifically existential phenomenological-once described to me as ?Person-Centered on steroids.? I also incorporate techniques from CBT, DBT, ACT, Play Therapy, and Art Therapy, which are widely used across counseling and psychology schools. I work with clients of all ages, from children as young as 5 to mature adults. My focus areas include mood disorders, ADHD, relationship issues, adjustment disorders, anger management, parenting, abuse, and trauma. Clients who come to me usually want to see meaningful change in their lives or in their children's lives. In therapy, my client is the driver. I provide support, guidance, and tools to help them reach their goals. The client decides what they want to see differently in their life, and I assist in making those goals more concrete and identifying the steps to take. I decided to become a therapist at 19, and this has been my only career. My main motivator has always been to build and maintain a healthy family. Our first session is about getting to know you and discussing what brought you to therapy. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
