Gilberto Gutierrez

Marriage and Family Therapist

 

My greatest reward as a therapist is helping all of my clients find new ways to make the changes in their lives and in their homes this will allow them to look forward to the future with hope.  I have a strong belief that we all need someone to communicate with who will really listen and accept us as we are, without judgment.  I provide my clients with a nonjudgmental environment. I also provide the client’s a safe place to talk about their issues. These issues may be stopping you from living the life you want to live. I am a trained child psychotherapist and use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Therapy and Psycho-education. My experience includes working with clients dealing with abandonment issues, addictions, grief, women’s abuse, and mood disorders. Having previously worked for at a public school for over 10 years, I believe I have the experience needed to understand children and parents. I have also have experience working at women’s shelters and an inpatient facility for paroled offenders. Having the client engage in therapy is a crucial point in the process. The issue(s) tend to not get resolved if the client does not engage. Also, having the client bring in support is always seen a plus. I think that everyone has issues, but not everyone wants to deal with their issues. Everyone is capable of conquering their problems and it always helps to have a professional help you conquer these issues.
