Alina Barroso Lorenzo

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. With my foreign degree in Psychiatry, I developed a strong clinical background working with adolescents, young adults, and families. I also earned a Master’s Degree in Psychology, and I have worked as a Mental Health Counselor for over the last 10 years, supporting individuals from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and older adults. I specialize in helping individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression and mood disorders, trauma, grief and loss, relationship and peer concerns, self-esteem challenges, parenting difficulties, work-related stress, and life transitions.

My therapeutic approach is strength-based and tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of each client. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Positive Psychology. I work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand their emotional patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and build practical skills that promote long-term emotional well-being and independence.

With a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I offer individual counseling to support my clients' journey toward healing and growth. In a first session, clients can expect a welcoming and safe space where they are encouraged to share at their own pace without pressure or judgment. Together, we will begin building trust, exploring their concerns, and identifying goals that help them feel comfortable, supported, and understood.
