Hello, my name is Korina Porras and I am an Associate Social Worker and psychotherapist. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can show up exactly as you are. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, and individuals with disabilities, and I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and confidence.
My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Socratic dialogue, and Acceptance-based strategies. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build coping tools, and work toward goals that feel meaningful and realistic for you.
Together we can create a space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered. I am passionate about supporting individuals in gaining clarity, building resilience, and creating meaningful change in their lives.
