Accepting new clients in April

In a world where time does not stop and life continues to hand things to you (or throw them at you), it can feel overwhelming and difficult to find a moment to slow down with yourself. My hope is to build a therapeutic space together to provide just that–slowed down moments with yourself. Our intention with those moments will always vary, depending on what has got your body and mind’s attention.

Choosing to start therapy is an extremely hard decision to make, and it can also be a declaration of self-love. My role is to provide you with safety, unconditional care, and tailored treatment as you navigate your unique relationship with therapy. Prioritizing yourself and your wellness are not always an option, and I highly value making therapy as accessible to you as possible.

As a former teacher, I have always found importance in authentic connections and experiencing the entire person in front of me, not just parts of them. While I specialize in children and young adults, I have found that I really enjoy helping all different age groups be seen and heard. My therapeutic style is a collage of several approaches, such as CBT, ACT, ecological models, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and multicultural frameworks. This can look like us finding tangible skills and strategies that work for you to try at home, doing art-based and body-based exercises, and following strings from our present to their homes in our past. Talk therapy is the foundation on which we will stand on, and we can supplement this experience with creative approaches that best suit who you are and what you are ready for.

When we can ground our bodies in compassion, kindness, and safety, then we can begin to explore what we need in order to live our lives as authentically as we can. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish, and I am hopeful that we can create a place where you feel you can show up just as you are. If it sounds like we would be a good fit, feel free to reach out to me at andrea@rogersparkcounseling.com.
