If left untreated, anxiety can become a burden, robbing you of what life really has to offer. Some of the methods I use to treat anxiety and depression include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), solution- focused brief Therapy. The common thread or theme throughout all our work, however, is mindfulness. Mindfulness is about learning to observe what is happening in the present moment while suspending judgment. Mindfulness has been explored, and can be found being used in major universities, hospitals, businesses, and the like. When it comes to treating anxiety/depression, we draw from several different treatment modalities based on the needs of the individual person. In the context of a supportive, compassionate environment, we will work together to put your anxiety in its rightful place-to lower the volume of negative thoughts and put you back in control of your life. TRAUMA: I have extensive experience working with survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence. When painful emotions around such experiences go unaddressed, they often find other, sometimes harmful, ways of making themselves known. Together we will be able to sit in the discomfort of our emotions and give them the space they deserve and ask for. Telling your story can offer you the chance to regain, or gain for the first time, a sense of agency and self-understanding. GRIEF, LOSS, AND LIFE TRANSITION: Our culture tends to only recognize death as a loss warranting grief, my understanding of grief is far more encompassing: grief is the emotional response to loss of any kind. Grieving is a necessity that follows no linear pattern. It empowers individuals to open themselves up to allow the normal and natural responses to loss. Grief is a journey that can be chaotic and is not as predictable and orderly as you might be told. Finding meaning after a loss is relative and personal. Only you can find your meaning. It takes time, let me join you navigate this difficult process. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/6ee01a46-c840-4058-8a56-23e650f6bff1/contact_thumb.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/890282e3-f6bf-4cfe-84b1-097d7838aeb4/about_thumb.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/9880b1ed-699c-4aab-b127-09fcc9b41117/info_thumb.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/b7a547ab-ec2f-4900-848a-56f976e14682/services_thumb.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/3bed4ce6-32c7-4549-baf7-50e1ca843d43/verified-psychology-today_m.com.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.leslierodriguezlpc.com/about daily 0.75 2023-08-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/45713d73-a771-4b74-94bd-a8835ab7e258/about_header.png About Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Asking yourself, “Why haven’t I found the right mate?” "Why don’t my parents understand me?" Wondering, "Who am I, what does this all mean?” I can help you explore and identify issues, goals, and interests or simply offer perspective on your present and future plans. It is important to have a reliable source available when life doesn’t seem to make sense. I’m happy to fill that gap. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/3e950c08-b0c1-4ffb-86e2-56956671dae4/services_individual.png Services - Individual Counseling My background is in cognitive-behavioral therapy, couple’s therapy, and crisis intervention.

We cope with difficult feelings and experiences, sometimes reacting to stress and pressure in the moment without thinking things through. You may be facing tough decisions, decisions about ending destructive relationships or starting a relationship. You can take your time, work on yourself and I will help you make the right decision that works for you when the time is right. You can cherish and nurture yourselves and yes, even learn to love yourselves. In the therapy process, we can begin with positive affirmations. You can start to accept yourself, with all your faults, strong points, weak points, and everything else. You are right where you need to be. My task is to provide accurate empathy in the “here and now” during each therapy session. I can help you and your family improve the ability to connect emotionally, setting healthy boundaries and accountability. I hope to support and help you develop effective coping mechanisms that work for you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/3373afad-2fa0-4f46-b64b-831994ad95d8/telehealth.png Services https://www.leslierodriguezlpc.com/404-error-page daily 0.75 2023-08-01 https://www.leslierodriguezlpc.com/espanol daily 0.75 2023-08-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64c91a4130b6b920d319725f/e24d64b8-ca98-47ff-bb50-38fbea8d73fc/espanol_header.png Español Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
