Azul’s Counseling Center

Azul’s Counseling Center Consejería Individual y Matrimonial. Niños, adolescentes y adultos. Evaluaciones Psicológicas para Inmigración. I always had a strong desire to help others.

I was born in Managua, Nicaragua but moved to the United States at a young age. I can say that I’ve learned to appreciate, value, and grow from every experience given in life. Good or bad experiences can potentially shape who we are. They can impact our view and perspective about life, and make us stronger to overcome challenges we face throughout our journey or disable us temporarily, making the journey less enjoyable and pleasing. I found in Psychology and Therapy a good option to provide others the needed tools to move forward, so they can find within them the strength to push toward a better and more productive lifestyle. I view therapy as a safe place to explore relationships, whether those relationships are with people (family, co-workers, partner) or things (food, money, alcohol). I also feel an important part of therapy is addressing the social, economic, and cultural influences on a person and that the process of therapy should be a collaborative one, with the client seen as the “expert” on their life. I received my Masters in Psychology with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy from Chapman University and my BA in Interdisciplinary Studies- Psychology from the University of Washington. My career as a therapist has included working in diverse range of settings: elementary, middle and high schools, community mental health centers, sexual assault agency and private practice as well. These places offered me the opportunity to gain experience working with a variety of issues including abuse, depression, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, adjustment and acculturation issues. I have a strong interest and passion for Perinatal and Postpartum mood disorders. I continue to expand my knowledge in this specific field because I feel it is one that our society is just recently getting more comfortable talking about and I continue to meet many “mamas” who struggle or have struggled with feelings of shame and guilt around pregnancy, prenatal grief and loss and/or postpartum depression/anxiety. I believe that a combination of a committed, cooperative, non-judgmental and compassionate approach alongside the use of psychotherapeutic methods that can be individualized to fit the client’s specific goals, feelings, behavior and experiences, can be very successful during the healing process. It’s such a great honor to be part of your healing journey. You deserve a chance to make your future better. It’s never too late to start.

Hi everyone!! I decided to change my name to Azul’s Counseling Center in honor of my son, who is autistic 💙💙Azul means Blue and Blue is the color that is used for Autism Awareness! I am a proud mama of a boy who is super sweet, smart and has taught me so much about the simplicity of life.
I wanted to also ask if you would be so kind to leave me a short review here on my page - under the Reviews section.
This helps me reach more people and it helps my business too. I’d gladly appreciate it!

Hola a todos !! Decidí cambiarle el nombre oficial a esta página! El nuevo nombre Azul’s Counseling Center, fue escogido en honor a mi hijito quien es autista. 💙💙 el color azul es el color que se usa para concientizar y dar más conocimiento de lo que es el autismo. Soy una mamá muy orgullosa de un niño que me ha enseñado valiosas lecciones de la
Vida, el amor y la simplicidad de la vida.

También quisiera pedirles el favor de
Visitar la sección de “Reviews” y puedan darme un review. Esto me ayudaría en gran manera a no solo promover mis servicios pero a alcanzar a muchos otros miembros de la comunidad. 💙 se los agradezco de antemano!

Living with anxiety isn’t easy. Anxious brain is wired to protect us from danger. Whenever the flight/fight process is activated by situations, memories,trauma or past experiences, the mind will try to find ways to make us believe that the fear is realistic … we get anxious.
I love this post …. Gotta remind our mind …. Nope. It’s not danger. It will be ok!!

In some cases such a Domestic Violence or Assault, your lawyer will suggest to get a Psychological Evaluation to serve as evidence of the effects of trauma. These can be very emotional and confusing. Let me know how I can help.
