Hola, soy Liz! I’m a bilingual (fluent in Spanish) licensed clinical social worker and certified alcohol and drug counselor (in the state of IL). My practice is person-centered and brings trauma-informed care. This means that I believe you seeking therapy means that you have both the desire and ability to reach self-actualization through personal growth and change (on your own terms), while also considering the impacts of trauma on a person.
Tengo licencia de trabajadora social clínica y consejera certificada en alcohol y drogas en el estado de Illinois. Utilizo un enfoque centrado en la persona e informado sobre el trauma. Esto significa que el hecho que estas buscando terapia quiere decir que tienes tanto el deseo como la capacidad de alcanzar la autorrealización a través del crecimiento personal y el cambio, mientras tanto considero también los efectos del trauma en una persona.
I became a therapist because of my own life experiences, which have sparked a curiosity in me to get to know the unknown. My own ongoing journey of growth and self-awareness enriches my practice with clients, as it deepens my understanding and compassion towards their experiences.
Me convertí en terapeuta debido a mis propias experiencias de vida, las cuales despertaron en mí una curiosidad por conocer lo desconocido. Mi propio camino continuo de crecimiento y autoconocimiento enriquece mi práctica con los clientes, ya que profundiza mi comprensión y compasión hacia sus experiencias.
I identify as Chicana and Mexican-American, which is something that I say with honor and gratitude today. As a daughter of immigrants, I have my own unique experience with growing up in 2 very different cultures, languages and communities, and I’m passionate about advocating for the mental and emotional wellness in our Latinx communities.
Me identifico como Chicana y Mexicana/Americana, algo que hoy digo con honor y agradecimiento. Como hija de inmigrantes, tengo mi propia experiencia única al crecer por medio de dos culturas, idiomas y comunidades muy diferentes, y me apasiona abogar por el bienestar mental y emocional en nuestras comunidades Latinx.
In our sessions, we’ll explore a range of themes, like family and relationship patterns, life stressors, and how your past has impacted you. I specialize in working with people who often feel overwhelmed with heavy emotions or life stressors. Whether that’s due to past experiences, relationship issues, low self-esteem, or feelings of hopelessness, together, we can make space for healing. As a bilingual therapist, I also focus on exploring cultural identities and generational patterns within families, providing a safe and compassionate space for exploration and understanding.
En nuestras sesiones, exploramos una variedad de temas, como los patrones familiares y de relaciones, los factores estresantes de la vida, y cómo te ha impactado tu pasado. Me especializo en trabajar con personas que a menudo se sienten abrumadas por emociones intensas o situaciones estresantes. Ya sea debido a experiencias pasadas, problemas de relaciones, baja autoestima o sentimientos de desesperacion, juntos podemos crear un espacio para la sanación. Como terapeuta bilingüe, también me enfoco en explorar las identidades culturales y los patrones generacionales dentro de las familias, proporcionando un espacio seguro y compasivo para la exploración y el entendimiento.
