About me
In establishing a therapeutic relationship between you and myself is to begin with an inviting warm welcome and thank you to you by allowing this journey of engagement between us. All relationships take risks and I am honored to provide a safe space for open dialogue between us.
I combine many therapeutic modalities (i.e.,CBT, DBT, to develop your treatment plan by using a strengths-based approach to empower goals tailored to your needs and areas of concern.
I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, which is an evidenced-based psychotherapy designed to help people with emotional dysregulation to treat mood disorders, suicidal ideation, and for change in behavioral patterns such as self-harm and substance abuse.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is a psycho-social intervention that aims to improve your mental health by focusing on challenging and changing unhelpful cognitive distortion and behaviors, improving emotional regulation, and the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems.
I use Solution Focused Therapy, is an evidence-based therapeutic approach which incorporates positive psychological practices, principles, and outcomes that helps people change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on their problems. SFT is most commonly known to be a friendly, hope-eliciting, future- orientated vehicle for developing, achieving, motivating and sustaining a desired behavioral change.
I use Narrative Therapy, which is a form of psychotherapy that seeks to help people identify their values and skills and knowledge they have to live these values, so they can effectively confront the problems they face in a safe manner. This may also provide space to reflect on historical trauma and family values as it relates to the individual and their goals.
My goal is to establish a connection, whereby both you and I will partner, addressing that each person is an individual and worthy of a safe space to heal within themselves and within their relationships.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amargo Crenshaw . We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Amargo has been incredible for my wife and I. She is very direct in the best of ways and has a tremendous amount of experience she can apply to a plethora of difficult situations we all face.
For anyone reading this who are considering Amargo, don’t hesitate. She is incredible.
Amargo is wonderful! She listens to our concerns and gives great feedback. She offers solutions that are simple and attainable. So far, we are very happy.
Amargo is communicative, helpfully concise, a very good listener and someone who is able to help people and couples in deep-rooted situations see a path forward with tips and techniques for better communication and more purposeful action. I highly recommend her.
She felt real and I felt in good hands :)
