Relational Psychotherapy
Rebecca, Mitchell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSEd, SIFI
Frequently, people who have experienced trauma develop extraordinary survival skills. Often the strategies that were critical for survival when you were a child, thwart the ability to develop satisfying work, family and/or romantic relationships in adulthood. Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to transcend patterns that are holding you back from achieving your goals, and realizing your potential. This often includes addressing family, career, and relationship issues within the treatment as well as recognizing thinking and/or behavior which may be harmful or holding you back.
I specialize in the treatment of PTSD, anxiety and depression, and am certified in EMDR(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), CPT and MI. My practice is influenced by CBT, psychodynamic, Schema, Internal Family Systems and mindfulness-based therapies. We will spend our first sessions exploring important historical information, assessing your needs, and setting goals.
You do not have to sit with your pain in silence, alone. I strive to nurture relationships with clients that are compassionate, kind, and non-judgmental, yet safe enough to tolerate direct but gentle confrontation. Together we will determine the approach and pace that will work best for you.

Patricia Valencia
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I work with adults who want to change their lives and get to the root of what makes them think, feel and react in ways that keep them stuck. They desire to lessen stress, reduce anxiety, and improve their relationships. We work together to understand and minimize their negative responses to triggers. We explore the events, thoughts and feelings that led to painful relationships and low self-esteem. We work together to develop realistic individualized strategies to minimize unhealthy patterns that prevent joy and peace in their lives. We collaborate to implement realistic changes that improve their quality of life.
