Getting to know Rita Diaz

Hi, my name is Rita Diaz, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I earned my Master's in School and Family Based Counseling from the University of La Verne. In your sessions, I encourage you to speak freely, share your experiences, and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. I believe I can help guide you through your concerns to meet your goals. My approach I believe you are the expert of yourself. My focus I have experience working with children, teens, and young adults, but I am open to working with older adults as well. The majority of my clients have a history of trauma, court dependency, or co-dependency concerns. My communication style I'm very open in my communication and hope that through building our therapeutic relationship, you can be as well. I believe honesty, as difficult as it may be, will assist in meeting your goals. My journey to therapy I started my journey intending to be a school counselor. During my program, I learned about the opportunities of being a clinical therapist and realized it was what I truly wanted to do. I've always been an observer, curious about human behavior and how our environment affects us-but also understanding that our environment does not define us. My goals for you I meet you where you are and encourage you to take a step further. My first session with you We will establish our expectations of one another and do our best to ensure that I can provide what you need to reach your therapeutic goals.
