Hi, I’m Lucia. I work with adults and children navigating anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. You may feel stuck in overthinking, intrusive thoughts, or constant worry—or notice your child struggling with focus, emotions, or behavior. Maybe you’re exhausted from trying to “fix” things on your own. I specialize in helping clients understand their mind, reduce anxiety, and build lasting skills using evidence-based approaches. Together, we create practical strategies so you (or your child) can feel calmer, more confident, and back in control.

If you’ve experienced trauma—especially over a long period of time—you may feel overwhelmed, on edge, or disconnected from yourself and others. You might find it hard to trust, to relax, or even to put your experiences into words. Part of you may want help, while another part feels unsure or afraid to open up. That makes sense. Your responses are not signs of weakness—they are ways your mind and body have tried to protect you. You deserve a space where you feel seen, respected, and supported. If you’re ready—or even just considering taking that first step—I invite you to reach out.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I work with adults (18+) who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and interpersonal conflict.

My therapeutic approach is informed by relational psychoanalytic theory and aims to support your ability to identify and modulate emotional states, recognize interpersonal and behavioral patterns, and develop more effective coping skills.

You’re thoughtful, self-aware, and often the person others rely on - but inside, your mind rarely slows down. You may overthink conversations, replay decisions, and hold yourself to impossibly high standards, with an inner critic that never seems to turn off.

Are you feeling stuck in the same patterns in your relationships? Do you tend to over-accommodate, struggle to set boundaries, or to trust again after betrayal or hurt?

My ideal client feels stuck between who they’ve been and who they want to be. They’re navigating anxiety, self-doubt, relationship struggles, or trauma—and they’re tired of doing it alone. They’re often the ones others rely on, but rarely have space for themselves. They want clarity, peace, and more authentic connection. They don’t need fixing—they need a place to be seen, supported, and gently challenged. Together, we work to untangle what’s holding them back so they can live with more freedom and self-trust.

FAQ - Hispanic and Latino Counseling
What can a Hispanic and Latino therapist help with?
A Hispanic or Latino therapist can support clients with a variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and major life transitions. What may set a therapist who personally identifies as Hispanic or Latino apart, however, is their ability to integrate cultural context into your care. If you identify with a specific cultural background, such as Mexican, Puerto Rican, Brazilian, or Colombian, working with a therapist who shares your identity can make a meaningful difference in therapy since you may feel that you have to explain yourself less, or that certain cultural values around family, respect, religion, and emotional expression are more understood by them.
What role can language play in therapy?
Language plays a central role in how people process and express emotions. Even for individuals who are fluent in English, certain feelings, memories, or experiences may be easier to describe in Spanish or in the language they grew up speaking. For many Hispanic and Latino clients, language is also closely tied to identity and family relationships. Being able to move between English and Spanish in therapy can help reflect real-life dynamics, such as communicating with family members in one language and navigating work or school in another. Read more about the advantages of choosing a bilingual counselor here.
How can a Hispanic and Latino therapist support family therapy?
Family is central in many Hispanic and Latino cultures, and a therapist with cultural familiarity may be better equipped to navigate family dynamics without oversimplifying them. Culturally responsive therapists may be able to more accurately interpret family roles and dynamics, thus allowing them to distinguish between cultural norms and clinically concerning dynamics. In addition, Hispanic and Latino therapists who speak Spanish may be a particularly good fit for bilingual or multilingual families, as a therapist that can facilitate clearly across languages will help ensure that all family members feel heard and understood.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
The best way to inquire about a therapist’s specific experience with Hispanic and Latino clients is to ask them targeted questions during an initial phone call or consultation. Consider asking questions such as: What experience do you have working with Hispanic or Latino clients? How do you incorporate cultural background into your approach to therapy? Do you offer therapy in Spanish or another language? You may also ask about specific examples of when they’ve navigated working with Hispanic and Latino clients.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The Psychology Today directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity on their profile. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
