Después de más de una década de análisis sobre los procesos terapéuticos, creo fielmente en que cada ser humano tiene la capacidad y el potencial para hacerse cargo de cada asunto en su vida. Sin embargo, en ocasiones las personas necesitan apoyo cuando se encuentran en medio de una situación difícil. Me ofrezco como facilitador para ayudar a quienes lo necesiten a descubrir o desarrollar sus capacidades para entender el problema, encontrar maneras de solucionarlo y desarrollar las acciones necesarias para que la situación mejore y puedan continuar adelante. En especial, apoyo a personas que enfrentan ansiedad y/o estrés, transiciones de vida (separaciones, pérdidas, estudios universitarios, etc.) y/o traumas (EMDR). Apoyo especialmente a adultos(as) jóvenes (18 a 39 años) y adultos(as) de mediana edad (40 a 65 años); estudiantes universitarios(as), atletas, estudiantes-atletas, hispanohablantes, parejas y familias.

Gail Clark

Therapist

Virtual • Delaware


Where an atmosphere of non-judgement exists, lies comfort for one to explore themselves. Mindfulness-based, CBT best describes my style. I value open-mindedness and also feel it is important to address how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another. Training and education in Community Mental Health from Wilmington University launched a two decade long mission for me to explore the field of psychology and help others to optimize the quality of their life.
