Welcome to my therapeutic practice. Engaging in therapy is a deeply personal journey, and finding a therapist with whom you can connect and grow is essential. I believe that therapy is a unique experience for each individual, shaped by their diverse backgrounds, experiences, and needs. However, it's crucial to understand that real change can only happen if the client is willing to work towards it. A therapist is not a magician who can make everything happen without the client's active participation and commitment to the process.

In my six years as a licensed therapist in Washington, I've come to understand the profound impact that therapy can have on one's life. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I offer bilingual services to ensure accessibility and inclusivity for all clients.

Therapy has evolved from traditional models to a more person-centered approach, where the focus is on building a collaborative and trusting relationship between therapist and client. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences freely.

Creative expression is a powerful tool in therapy, allowing for the exploration of unspoken feelings often associated with shame. Through active listening and compassionate support, I aim to help you navigate difficult topics with courage and resilience.

Setting boundaries and taking responsibility for oneself are essential aspects of good mental health. My role as a therapist is to empower you to take ownership of your journey and make positive changes that align with your values and goals.

It's also important to recognize that therapists come with various styles and approaches. Some may focus on cognitive-behavioral techniques, while others might use humanistic, psychodynamic, or integrative methods. Finding a therapist whose approach resonates with you is key to a successful therapeutic relationship.

Ultimately, the goal of therapy is to equip you with the skills and insight needed to navigate life's challenges independently. I believe that social media often leads us to seek external guidance when the answers lie within ourselves. It's important to prioritize self-care and recognize the value of investing in your mental health.

Opting into a therapeutic relationship can be life-changing, not only for yourself but also for those around you. I am committed to accompanying you on your transformative journey towards positive change and personal empowerment.

I look forward to the opportunity to support you as you discover your inner strength and resilience, and I'm here to provide guidance, compassion, and encouragement every step of the way.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She is the absolute best! I've been through many different therapists and felt as if it was all a hoax. Lourdes truly is one of a kind!

Jun 2024

Lourdes is amazing! She listens with compassion, empathy, and thoughtfulness. Her own life and professional experience, has brought her to a place of great wisdom and understanding. I love my time with Lourdes, even when it’s a tough topic to discuss! 10 out of 10.

May 2024

Lourdes is calm and compassionate, encouraging, and a great listener. I’ve only just started working with her, but coming from an aversion to therapy and then being matched with her feels like such a blessing. She is reflective and knowledgeable. I’m actually excited about therapy!

May 2024

Lourdes has been very encouraging from the start. I appreciate her candid and casual demeanor, and the resources she offers beyond the Betterhelp templates. Though she has a lot of knowledge and experience, she speaks in clear, accessible terms, not in therapy jargon.

Apr 2024

I’ve had many therapists over the years and even a few sessions in, I know that my time with Lourdes will have a huge impact on my therapy journey to healing! Would recommend her to anyone.
