I specialize in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for OCD, anxiety and depression. This straight-forward approach helps you identify triggers (such as negative intrusive thoughts or stressful situations) which create uncomfortable feelings. The resulting sadness &/or anxiety leads to behaviors such as avoidance or compulsions. My short-term approach helps you break this self-defeating cycle to reduce negative behaviors and decrease these feelings. In addition, I help you learn healthier coping strategies to be more effective interpersonally, more efficient with your time, appropriately regulate mood swings, tolerate painful emotions and decrease self-destructive/ self-sabotaging behaviors. Dr. Roatta's clinical training was done at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center, where she also held a voluntary faculty position until 2003. She has co-authored several publications in the field of behavioral medicine, and has co-presented at eleven national conferences. Dr. Roatta offers full psychological testing/evaluations of adolescents and adults. Treatment is provided in English and Spanish to adults and adolescents in the Coral Gables/South Miami area.
