Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist
Hello, my name is Esmeralda Saavedra and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I have over 22 years of experience in assisting individuals, families, and children with PTSD. It would be an honor to work with you and meet you where you are today. My therapeutic application is to hear your story and meet you where you are today. I have a Bowen foundation and I am EMDR trained. Being culturally sensitive as well and intertwining those strengths to develop tools that best meet your needs. It would be an honor to hear your story. I typically work with older youth and adults with chronic PTSD and have a history of trying to manage anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. My communication style is one of genuine empathy, culturally sensitive, and direct. Goals should be developed with current strengths intertwined and is a joint effort between client and therapist. The first session would begin with information gathering to develop an idea of the current family system structure in place and assess strengths and issues of concern.
