About
Cecelia
I am an LMFT who believes you are the expert of your own story. I feel passionate about inspiring people to tap into personal strengths because she thinks that is one of the biggest keys to living a more enriched life. I am experienced in working with issues like anxiety, depression, self-esteem, insomnia and life adjustments. I use an eclectic style which mostly draws on modalities like ACT, CBT, DBT, Solution Focused and Narrative whilst tailoring treatment to an individual rather than a one size fits all approach. My approach to therapy often leans on humor to establish a secure, engaging environment for conversation countering the cold and invalidating nature of the world outside.
In my spare time, I enjoy bird watching, reading and the company of animals.
