April Zaragoza
When it comes to therapy, what I have learned is the only way for therapy to have a lasting impact and create a dynamic shift in someone (scary I know! But totally worth it!) is for there to be a genuine connection between client and therapist. This is why I am my true authentic self in my therapy sessions. I create a safe, warm, and inviting space by being honest, transparent, respectful (meeting my clients where they are, actively listening, and asking questions for understanding), empathic, and non-judgmental. Because I am human, there may be times I am a little awkward, stumble on my words, or forget what I was going to say in the moment. Also since I promise to be honest, that means at times I can challenge perspectives and shine light of how you may be getting in your own way but it is always in a gentle manner. When it comes to therapy with me, I believe in targeting external factors that may be getting in your way which may be financial stress, family stress, or honestly anything happening in your environment that is causing distress. We talk about these stressors and come up with a plan to tackle them. But what I have seen is that we can target external factors all we want but things seem to always pop up because that’s life. So we also need to tackle internal factors, core beliefs or thoughts or behaviors that are not working for you anymore. Once we work on your internal dialogue and thinking, then you will feel more equipped to handle your day to day with a sense of well being and contentment.
