Find Your Counselor

Welcome—So glad you’ve taken this step to be here. It takes courage to explore therapy, and I’m honored you’re considering what it might look like to work together. 

I provide therapy for adults navigating relationship challenges, parenting difficulties, and symptoms of anxiety or depression, supporting them in building confidence and moving toward the life they hope to create.

For children, I work with those experiencing difficulties with impulse control, emotion regulation, and social skills, helping them develop effective coping strategies and improve interpersonal functioning.

My approach is developmentally informed and individualized, fostering resilience, self-awareness, and meaningful growth for each client.

I work to create a warm, inviting space where clients feel safe to show up exactly as they are. My approach centers on exploring your internal landscape—your emotions, values, patterns, and lived experiences—with curiosity and compassion. I believe in your innate capacity for growth, meaning, and self-understanding while attending to questions of purpose, meaning, freedom, and responsibility. I also incorporate elements of wilderness and nature-based therapy, drawing on the restorative power of the natural world to support reflection, grounding, and deeper self-connection. Together, we work toward greater authenticity, clarity, and a more grounded connection to yourself and your life.

I love empowering my clients and helping them take control of their lives. Although we may share similar experiences, only you know what it's like to be in your shoes, so you get to decide what is best for you. Hi! My name is Clarissa, and I work primarily with adolescents and young adults.

I am a native Spanish speaker. Since I was young, I've always known that I wanted to help people, and providing therapy is something that has called to me for a long time. This led me to complete a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Spanish, as well as a Master's degree in Social Work. I strive to create a safe environment for my clients. This means holding a judgment-free space for my client to speak freely as they try to make sense of themselves and their world. My goal is to help you feel heard and guide you in becoming the best version of yourself.
