Hello, my name is Marisela Adams, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 19 years of experience in the mental health field. My passion has always been to assist those in need and to provide the necessary tools for a healthier state of mind and well-being. I have experience in working with children (9-12 years old), teens, and adults. use screening measures to track and monitor progress throughout treatment. I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focus-CBT, and CBT-Insomnia. I specialize in treating trauma, loss and grief, OCD, panic disorder, mood dysregulation, anxiety, and depression. I keep a warm, inviting, and open environment for my patients. Privacy is essential, and my goal is to work towards a strong therapeutic alliance. I provide an environment where my patients are able to express and process complex mental and emotional challenges they are experiencing. During treatment, I evaluate which tools and aids are most appropriate for my patient's needs and tailor them to each individual.
