At Blancas Psychotherapy and Consultations, her approach is centered around creating a safe and non-judgmental environment for clients to explore their inner experiences. She believes in fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship that empowers individuals to work towards their personal growth and well-being. She believes in a realistic and sustainable session frequency. Often a new client might begin therapy at a weekly or biweekly pace, and gradually shift to more time in between sessions.
