Introduction

My name is Juan Barriga, and I’m a licensed clinical psychologist in the state of Illinois. I have 10 years of clinical experience working with children (as young as 3 years old), adolescents, adults, older adults, families, and couples in the Chicagoland area. I also have Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT®) from the PSYPACT® Commission to provide virtual psychotherapy in 42 states. I’m a proud Chicagoan (from the southwest side) who grew up in a Mexican-American household. Being raised by my immigrant parents, I learned to value and appreciate my education and my community, which is why my values, oftentimes, show up in the work that I do. I have previous clinical training and work experiences in academic settings, outpatient and inpatient settings, forensic settings, community health settings, and group practice settings. As a “systems” psychologist, I use a relational, culturally sensitive, and trauma-informed approach to better understand a person and their experiences. I take into account how people with unique identities may have different circumstances based on: - The interactions they have both directly and indirectly with others (e.g., family members, friends, work/school peers, partners, and community members). - The environments they are in (e.g., school, work, and neighborhood) - The larger systems that may be affecting their well-being (e.g., welfare policies, economic system, political systems, legal/justice systems, and social and cultural values). My mission is to collaborate with my client(s) in order to make therapy meaningful and purposeful for them for whatever short-term or long-term goals they may have. My approach is flexible and adaptive to customize and meet their needs. I can provide coping skills, communication skills, and much more. I can also provide insight for self-awareness and awareness of others, so they can identify patterns and improve on their behaviors, feelings, and relationships. I make sure that you can see that regardless of your circumstances, you also carry strengths. -------- Mi nombre es Juan Barriga, y soy un psicólogo clínico licenciado en el estado de Illinois. Tengo 10 años de experiencia clínica trabajando con niños (desde los 3 años de edad), adolescentes, adultos, adultos mayores, familias y parejas en el área de Chicago. También tengo Autoridad para Practicar Telepsicología Interjurisdiccional (APIT®) de la Comisión PSYPACT® para proveer psicoterapia virtual en 42 estados. Soy un orgulloso ciudadano de Chicago (del lado suroeste) que creció en un hogar mexicano-americano. Al ser criado por mis padres inmigrantes, aprendí a valorar y apreciar mi educación y mi comunidad, por lo que mis valores, a veces, se muestran en el trabajo que hago. Tengo experiencia clínica en entornos académicos, hospitalarios, forenses, de salud comunitaria y de práctica de grupo. Como psicólogo «sistémico», utilizo un enfoque relacional, culturalmente sensible e informado del trauma para comprender mejor a la persona y sus experiencias. Tengo en cuenta cómo las personas con identidades únicas pueden tener circunstancias diferentes en función de: - Las interacciones directas e indirectas con otras personas (por ejemplo, familiares, amigos, compañeros de trabajo/escuela, parejas y miembros de la comunidad). - Los entornos en los que se encuentran (por ejemplo, la escuela, el trabajo y el vecindario). - Los sistemas más amplios que puedan estar afectando a su bienestar (por ejemplo, el sistema económico, los sistemas políticos, los sistemas legales y judiciales y los valores sociales y culturales). Mi misión es colaborar con mi(s) paciente(s) para que la terapia tenga sentido y propósito para ellos, para cualquier objetivo a corto o largo plazo que puedan tener. Mi enfoque es flexible y adaptable para personalizar y satisfacer sus necesidades. Puedo ofrecer estrategias de afrontamiento, técnicas de comunicación y mucho más. También puedo ofrecer una perspectiva para el conocimiento de uno mismo y de los demás, para que puedan identificar patrones y mejorar sus comportamientos, sentimientos y relaciones. Me aseguraré de que puedan ver que, independientemente de sus circunstancias, también tienen fortalezas.
