Priscilliana (Priscilla) Torres-Mendoza (She/her)

As a Certified Mood Disorder Professional (CMDP), I have specialized training and experience in working with individuals who are struggling with mood disorders like anxiety, depression, bipolar, and something else that feels like a mix of depression and anxiety, but without episodes of full mania called hypomania. Our sessions will empower you with effective coping strategies, emotional regulation techniques, and sustainable tools to manage symptoms and foster long-term emotional well-being.

I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment for my clients to explore their traumatic experiences. I utilize evidence-based approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), to help individuals process their trauma and reduce symptoms such as flashbacks and intrusive thoughts. My goal is to tailor interventions to each person’s unique needs, empowering them to develop effective coping strategies and build resilience.

I create a compassionate and non-judgmental space for clients to address their concerns. I employ evidence-based techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychosexual therapy to help individuals and couples overcome issues such as erectile dysfunction, low libido, and sexual pain. Together, we explore underlying factors like anxiety, past trauma, and relationship dynamics, fostering open communication to enhance intimacy and improve sexual functioning.

This method focuses on enhancing relationship skills and fostering emotional intimacy through effective communication strategies.

EMDR therapy has been extensively researched and proven effective for trauma-related conditions, helping clients process and integrate traumatic experiences while reducing symptoms such as flashbacks, anxiety, and emotional distress. If you are seeking an evidence-based treatment for trauma, EMDR may be a valuable option to consider for enhancing emotional well-being and recovery.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used, evidence-based psychotherapeutic approach that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is designed to help individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional difficulties. CBT is effective for a variety of mental health issues, including anxiety disorders, depression, PTSD, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
