THERAPY

Dr. Vigil-Otero provides psychotherapy for a variety of treatment issues ranging from adjustment difficulties to clinical depression and anxiety. Psychotherapy is a stimulating process that can help change long-standing behavior patterns and/or negative perceptions. Dr. Vigil provides cognitive-behavioral therapy that is tailored to an individual's unique needs. Patients in her practice often meet weekly or biweekly and have homework or an “action plan” in between sessions in order to help therapeutic gains generalize into day-to-day life.

CONSULTATION

Some individuals may not be experiencing a clinical disorder and may benefit from consultation or coaching to address specific situational stress or life transitions. For these individuals, consultation sessions may focus on lifestyle adjustments to improve quality of life and/or stress management. Consultations are largely focused on helping individuals make adjustments to create the life they really want, one that aligns with their unique values and priorities. In contrast to life coaching, where you often see an unlicensed individual without training in human behavior, consultation sessions with Dr. Vigil are informed by research-based treatment and scientific study on well-being theory, quality of life theory and resilience.

Therapy and consultations can provide opportunities to work on self-development and ultimately help individuals lead more meaningful and fulfilling lives.
