More about Shaliss

  • 13 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

My name is Shaliss Padilla, MA, LMFT, Licensed Psychotherapist, with over 13 years of experience counseling people from all walks of life, in a variety of treatment settings. What makes my approach unique is that I combine the best of conventional, integrative and holistic approaches, taking "talk therapy" to the next level! Seeking personal transformation? Are anxiety and/or depression, and/or bad habits holding you back? Well, I can help!

I work with the whole self - mind, body and spirit. Prefer conventional approaches? Lets try evidence based counseling techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Like holistic approaches? Let's explore Mindfulness techniques, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Energy Psychology, EFT/tapping and other integrative modalities.

In addition to counseling and life coaching, I specialize in Narcissistic Abuse Recovery for the victims and survivors of a Narcissistic abuse by partners/spouses, parents/family of origin, and/or friends/coworkers/bosses.

I am not only holistic in my approach, but very hands on. Meaning I am very action oriented, and will help you actually make long lasting changes....not just talk about your problems. I am big on assigning homework between sessions, and provide alot of psycho-education and skill building during sessions. My focus is self mastery, and personal transformation. My aim is that you become the highest version of yourself. Contact me now, and lets get started.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
