My name is Carolina Alvarez. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. I have been working in the field for 10 years. I have experience working with families of all types. My experience in the field has allowed me to gain a better understanding for individuals and their family structure; I firmly believe you must work with a person family to really help them improve. If you've had some experience with counseling or none yet I ask that you give me a chance to meet you and your family and help you achieve your goals. My therapeutic stance is nonjudge-mental and collaborative. In therapy, I focus on helping families and individuals identify and obtain achievable goals. I am very respectful of each one's culture and values. I mainly use solution focus therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and systems theory to conduct sessions. It is my goal to help you find what works for you and apply to everyday life solutions that work. Thank you for the opportunity!
