Samantha Contreras
Facing difficult emotional and interpersonal challenges in our lives can be frightening, but can also be a time for growth and healing. Talking with someone who listens without judgement, understands your concerns and helps you clarify issues can be invaluable. I am a culturally competent therapist working with various population having experience with serving adolescents, adults, couples, veterans, those suffering from chronic illness, and those struggling with concerns around sexuality. My therapeutic approach is solution focused and I utilize multiple modalities to best fit the needs of both individuals and couples. Evidence based therapy techniques are utilized such as mindfulness-based interventions, IBCT, CBT, ACT and DBT to aid in behavior modification. In addition, as part of the therapeutic process the implementation of strength-based techniques are used to aid in addressing life’s challenges, as well as, utilizing a faith-based approach when appropriate. I employ a variety of widely researched and effective therapeutic approaches to address symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relational problems and/or other life stressors or concerns. My personal and professional life has been dedicated to helping others and I am truly passionate about my work. My role as a therapist is to support you and to challenge you on your path to self-improvement and self-empowerment. Through a collaborative process, we can explore and address the underlying causes of problematic behaviors, beliefs, feelings and relationship issues. I have experience working with the full spectrum of emotional and behavioral issues and together we can begin the process of healing.
