Dagmar Mirabal

Hi! I'm Dagmar Mirabal, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist with over a decade of experience providing treatment for clients dealing with stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and issues related to motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

My career spans both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, where I’ve had the privilege of supporting people from diverse backgrounds on their journey toward healing and growth. I employ a holistic and trauma-informed approach in my practice.

My therapeutic style is informal, compassionate and responsive to each individual needs. My goal is to make you feel comfortable in a safe, non-judgmental space I have created for you. You can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where you can feel comfortable sharing your story.

My approach resonates particularly well with clients who value a collaborative, strengths-based, and culturally sensitive framework. Whether someone is coping with the aftermath of a traumatic event, feeling stuck in patterns of negative thinking, or struggling to manage overwhelming emotions, I am here to provide tailored support that meets their unique needs

I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and in Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT). I utilize both cognitive behavioral and integrative psychotherapeutic approaches, emphasizing the exploration of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

My clinical expertise is complemented by a deep understanding of trauma and its impact, as well as extensive experience addressing anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. I have a talent for tailoring evidence-based interventions to meet the unique needs of each client, combining approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness practices.

In the first session with me, you can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where you can feel comfortable sharing your story. We’ll start with introductions and explore what brought you to therapy, focusing on your goals, concerns, and what you hope to achieve through our work together.

I’ll take time to explain the therapy process, answer any questions, and discuss confidentiality so you know what to expect moving forward. This session is more about listening and understanding your experiences, rather than diving into problem-solving right away.

You can expect me to ask questions about your current challenges, personal history, and any factors that may be impacting your emotional well-being. This helps me gain a holistic understanding of your situation so we can collaboratively create a plan tailored to your needs.
