Therapy Style

Hello, I am Constina, an associate marriage and family therapist (AMFT). I am presently developing experience with different populations.  I specialize in affirming people's resiliency and identifying mental health challenges for adolescents, individuals, and couples. With extensive life experience as a cisgender African-American, I bring a deep understanding of diverse backgrounds and challenges faced by different communities.  

I utilize therapeutic modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and person-centered approaches to address depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and other life issues and challenges. My goal is to create a supportive and empowering environment for clients to explore their emotions, build resilience, and achieve personal growth.  

I bring compassion, good listening skills, exploratory dialogue, and a sense of humor to our sessions.  I am interested in where you’ve been, where you want to go, and using my skills, training, and insight to help you to get there. 
​
I look forward to our first session!

Education.

My educational background includes:

• Masters of Arts in Psychology, with an emphasis on Marriage and Family Therapy, Cal Southern University
