Hi, I’m Raquel Perez, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I believe healing begins with feeling truly seen and safe. I specialize in working with individuals and couples navigating depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and sex therapy, always honoring the deeper wisdom within each person. It’s a sacred privilege to hold space for your journey — wherever you are, you don’t have to walk it alone.
I’m a trauma-informed therapist specializing in EMDR, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and mindfulness-based interventions. I bring these approaches together to create a personalized path toward healing, supporting clients in reconnecting with their inner strengths, reclaiming a sense of agency, and moving toward a more grounded and fulfilling life.
I hope to provide a space for client's to feel comfortable while attending therapy. I try my best to create a warm and welcoming environment.
I'm so glad you're ready to take action! Starting therapy is courageous. My goal is to walk alongside you and encourage you further. I consider my role as therapist an immense privilege, and seeing people grow and heal through therapy never gets old!
Like many of my clients, I struggled a lot and felt like life was harder then it should be. Having done the work of therapy myself, I am now a licensed professional counselor. Before entering private practice, I spent thousands of hours in various different practices working with clients that struggled with depression, and anxiety. I enjoy working with men, women and young adults (18-45). I've found that undiagnosed neurodiverse clients and folks with traumatic family backgrounds are frequently attracted to me and so I've been putting more emphasis on study and research in these areas.
Hello-
For over 20 years I have had the privilege of supporting the unique life journeys of women and their families. My areas of practice include adjustment to life's changing landscape, the psychological and emotional adjustment to parenthood, mood and anxiety disorders, infertility and reproductive trauma and pregnancy and newborn loss. I believe that each one of us is "pre-programmed" for growth and that through self-study & self compassion we can relieve much of our own suffering.
I work from a client centered and trauma informed approach addressing all aspects of a client's whole self, to help the client find healing, hope and freedom to navigate life's challenges and learn to thrive. Although I work with clients of all ages, I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults. I am committed to instilling hope in the lives of clients and their families. I love what I do and feel honored to have the opportunity to walk along side of you during this season of life.
