Hi, I’m Yessica, I am passionate about supporting individuals manage life difficulties and day to day stressors. I am a bilingual LCSW with ten years of experience supporting people navigate life’s challenges. Whether it’s past trauma, grief, mood struggles, or the stress of everyday life, I want you to know that you don’t have to do it alone. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based tools. As a Latina, I understand how language, family system and culture influences mental health. I value creating a safe space where you can work towards healing at your own pace.
I specialize in mood disorders, grief/adjustment, crisis and trauma survivors (including immigration and multicultural stress). I work additionally with pregnancy/postpartum and parenting. I tailor my approach to be client centered, utilize cognitive behavioral, system theory, trauma informed and grounded in evidence-based interventions.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step but we will work together to build a safe space. I find it important to meet you where you are at in the process of healing. If something in my approach resonates with you, I invite you to reach out.
