Hello, my name is Ernestina Perez, a licensed clinical therapist. I founded Latinx Talk Therapy in Chicago to provide culturally competent, bilingual, and stigma-free mental health services to the Latinx community. My mission is to empower our community members by nurturing their mental strength, courage, and willpower. Through therapy, I aim to help Latinx individuals address their emotional concerns while guiding them towards happiness and inner peace. You have my assurance that we'll tackle your challenges together, enabling you to reach your goals and live a more intentional, fulfilling life.
I can help by offering evidence-based therapies, mindfulness techniques, and psychodynamic therapy tailored to their unique needs. My specialization includes helping Latinx individuals and immigrants develop resilience, coping strategies, and improved self-perception. Through a holistic approach, I aim to facilitat growth, healing, and goal attainment.
As a licensed clinical therapist and a member of the Latinx community, I empathize with your challenges, be it mental health or immigration issues. I'm here to help you find strength, courage, and happiness. You don't have to face these challenges alone. Reach out, and let's work together.
