Are your emotions getting the best of you, influencing behaviors that impact your relationships, career, or sense of self? Are worry thoughts or your mood becoming increasingly challenging? Building a life is tough when strong emotions get in the way, but I promise it’s possible to get a hold of them! In our work together, we'll figure out what needs to change and what you can do to get back on track.

I specialize in emotion dysregulation, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I prioritize providing culturally sensitive care, taking into account your background, lifestyle, and values. Moreover, I tailor treatment to your unique needs and goals and pull flexibly from cognitive behavior treatments, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy and exposure therapy.

Navigating the decision to pursue therapy, whether for yourself or a loved one, can feel overwhelming. Rest assured, I'm here to provide the expertise and support you need throughout the process. I encourage you to reach out to schedule a free initial 15-minute consultation. You can visit my personal website at www.DrCecilyPortillo.com for further details!
