CORE SERVICES:
Mgr. Mendez specializes in Systemic and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Systemic therapy is particularly effective for couples therapy, as it focuses on relational dynamics and patterns of interaction.
Each session is a safe and supportive space where we explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences.
First Session: We discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations for therapy. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your background and what brings you here.
Ongoing Sessions: Depending on your needs, we may focus on identifying thought patterns, improving communication, managing emotions, or developing coping strategies.
For Couples Therapy: We explore relationship dynamics, address challenges, and work toward healthier interactions.
There are people who, once they reach a certain age, feel that they no longer have a place in the labor market. There is a social view that tells them they no longer belong.
Since what cannot be seen cannot be named, we must name this phenomenon: it is called Ageism.
Some companies impose age barriers when hiring, instead of focusing on experience and skills, thus wasting qualified talent.
For more than 10 years, I have been supporting people through their processes of change, and I have noticed how age often becomes a vulnerability that could actually be a strength.
I worked in the field of public health and healthy aging, discovering the great potential of increased longevity — but also recognizing the normalized prejudice I myself once held toward older people.
I met groups of people full of enthusiasm to create, play, learn, and share life experiences; yet they had been leaving the workforce in ways that represented more of a rupture than a transition.
That’s when I began reflecting on the typical life model of study, work, and retirement. I started to question the rupture implied by retirement and to consider the possibility of turning it into a transition. Today, old age has become the longest stage of life, and it is crucial to be able to choose how we want to live it.
