Hi, I’m Gilda! I work with adolescents and adults, individuals and couples who have experienced some form of trauma or struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, a loss of self, or grief.
You have taken the first brave step towards meeting your needs, confronting issues, and doing the hard things in life. Life is already tough enough—you do NOT have to do it ALONE. Let me help you better understand how your past is impacting your present, develop compassion and respect for yourself, and discover more helpful ways to overcome pain and hardship.
Trusting others can be intimidating, but you can be assured that I will celebrate you for working towards healing. I see partnering with you as an honor and hold space for you to share your story. You can do so without fear of judgement or shame. If you have never heard anyone say you are VALUED and WORTHY of respect, love, and relationship, YOU ARE. My hope is for you to be able to know and own this TRUTH. There is LIFE after trauma, and HEALING is possible.
About Me: I began my career as an educator—teaching students and coaching teachers. During COVID my heart was gripped by the hurt around me and the need to make a more meaningful impact on those I encountered. I returned to graduate school to become a therapist and have found my perfect fit in life. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are and helping them journey toward their goals and on to healing. I draw from my training and life experiences to create a safe place for clients to share their stories, process their pain, and overcome the obstacles in their paths.
I am gifted at seeing value in others and teaching them to recognize their self-worth. I empower clients to understand why they are experiencing difficulty and to how overcome challenges. I incorporate multiple modalities depending on each client's needs and goals. I utilize interventions from Somatic Psychology, Internal Family Systems, Narrative therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Healing Our Core Issues, Strengths-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Emotionally-Focused Therapy,
I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting Levels 1-3, EMDR for Couples, EMDR for Children, EMDR for Eating Disorders, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Couples Intensives, and Prepare/Enrich Premarital Counseling.
