"Most people can benefit from psychotherapy at some point in their lives."
Meet Dr. Bishop-Diaz

You're probably here because you're considering psychotherapy to help navigate problems or struggles in your life. I'm so glad you found your way here.

Therapy is an effective means of decreasing psychological and emotional difficulties, including depression and anxiety. Psychotherapy provides long-lasting benefits and support, giving you tools to cope with difficult situations, challenge negative thought patterns, and improve your relationships.

For over 25 years, I've helped clients with a wide range of concerns in individual and couples' therapy. I have considerable experience with trauma and abuse, depression, and anxiety disorders. I also enjoy working with teens and LGBTQ+ individuals.

I realize many new patients feel apprehensive about starting therapy. It can take courage, but the rewards are usually well worth it. Once we meet, I hope you'll find me to be warm, compassionate, and accepting.
