About Me
My name is Silvia Guendulein Cruz and I am a Latina, bilingual (English/Spanish) mental health therapist in WA. I received my Master of Social Work degree from Walla Walla University. For 3 years, I provided mental health therapy to youth and families who struggled with a wide range of behavioral and emotional concerns. I now provide telehealth therapy services to individuals over the age of 15!
I have a passion for helping individuals overcome life's hurdles and achieve a sense of relief in return. My approach to therapy includes ensuring our therapeutic relationship is established so you feel welcomed, safe, and free of judgement. I am also trained in several evidence-based modalities to best meet your individualized treatment goals:
-
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
-
IFS (Internal Family Systems) informed approach
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
-
Trauma Focused - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
-
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, two cats, and chickens! I also enjoy gardening, working out, and video gaming!
