About My Clients
I work with adults of all ages on a small variety of issues including traumatic recovery, relational concerns, identity work, and mood management. For more detailed information on my scope of practice, please visit my website at mirellawarren.com.
My Background and Approach
While my approach varies depending on the client and circumstances, I mainly draw on principles from Cultural-Relational Theory, Existential Psychology, Polyvagal Theory, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), as well as a small handful of mindfulness-based treatment methods.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My work is grounded in a commitment to social justice as well as a firm belief in the dignity and worth of all individuals. As therapist of multicultural heritage, I am deeply aware of my own places of privilege and the complexity that this entails. I incorporate this awareness into my approach, recognizing the ways that our social and political systems have, throughout history, served to disconnect us from ourselves and from each other. I am also trained in evidence-based, trauma-informed care practices suited to the unique needs of individuals who seek to recover from traumatic experience. This includes treatment of survivors who have experienced isolated incidents who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as well as those who suffer from chronic occurrences of trauma resulting in what is known as Complex Trauma (C-PTSD).
