Getting to know Nisa Vela

Hello, I'm NISA. With 18 years of experience in the mental health field, working with both children and adults, I truly believe that this is my calling in life. My goal is to make your counseling experience positive, enriching, and successful. I understand that starting therapy can be a big step, and if you're feeling unsure, I'm here to provide the reassurance you need that counseling can be a great help in the long run. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's degree, and I specialize in a variety of areas including adolescent and teen mental/behavioral health, anger management, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, children's mental/behavioral health, depression, family relationships, grief/bereavement, PTSD, psychosis/schizophrenia, stress, and trauma. My therapeutic approach is centered around talk therapy, but I also incorporate music, art, and play techniques to engage clients in a way that feels natural and effective. I enjoy using Solution Focused Brief Therapy, which helps individuals examine their daily routines, identify positive exceptions, and develop strategies to achieve their overall goals. Building a strong rapport from our first meeting is crucial to me. I want to ensure that you feel safe and understood in our sessions. I strive to be relatable and validate the feelings and emotions you bring to our time together. Counseling is a journey of self-exploration, and my role is to guide you in discovering who you are, who you want to become, and how we can work together to make the changes you desire. In my professional life, I am passionate about creating a supportive and empathetic environment for my clients. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives and am committed to helping you navigate your path to well-being. If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's work together to achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
