About

You are valued, understood, and accepted

Hello! I'm Norma Garcia and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor. I became a counselor because I realized that The Lord gave me a love to help others. I truly enjoy being able to help my clients consider new perspectives and discover a new sense of self. I specialize in working with children and adults. I am trauma-focused and consider that trauma is a major factor for many symptoms that hinder a healthy mindset. I use education and a collaborative approach to motivate change of maladaptive patterns of behavior, and a negative self-belief system. I also incorporate play with children as they discover to regulate their emotions and embrace their individualism. I believe in meeting each client where they are emotionally, and with the necessary tools, clients will discover their path to healing and acceptance. This journey is about growth, hope, and knowing that The Lord has given us a spirit of courage. The Spirit God gave us, does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 *** Hola! Soy Norma García y soy Consejera Profesional Licenciada. Me convertí en consejera porque me di cuenta de que Dios me había dado amor para ayudar a los demás. Realmente disfruto poder ayudar a mis clientes a considerar nuevas perspectivas y descubrir un nuevo sentido de sí mismos. Me especializo en trabajar con niños y adultos. Me enfoco en el trauma y considero que el trauma es un factor para muchos síntomas que afectan una mentalidad saludable. Utilizo la educación y un enfoque colaborativo para motivar el cambio en patrones de comportamiento desadaptativos y un sistema de creencias negativas de si mismo. Incorporo el juego con los niños a medida que descubran a regular sus emociones y abrazar su individualismo. Creo en conocer a cada cliente donde se encuentra emocionalmente, y con las herramientas necesarias, los clientes descubrirán su camino hacia la sanación y la aceptación. Este viaje tiene que ver con el crecimiento, la esperanza y saber que el Señor nos ha dado un espíritu de valentía. El Espíritu que Dios nos dio, no nos hace tímidos, sino que nos da poder, amor y autodisciplina. 2 Timoteo 1:7
