Great to meet you!

Demi Tuuk Velarde, LCSW has specialized training in trauma-informed practice. Evidence-based therapy for children, adolescents, and adults, with in- person available for Las Vegas, NV residents. Contact if you want to heal from trauma, improve relationships, and foster emotional resilience. With a warm and collaborative style, she creates a safe space for post-traumatic growth.

My approach to therapy

I use a warm and collaborative approach in sessions with clients and provide psychoeducation on strategies and techniques that may be helpful for each individual client. My practice is trauma- informed with a focus on distress tolerance skill building.

What you can expect from me

Clients may expect to have a free 15 minute consultation if they choose to and will then receive intake paperwork via email and have their intake assessment scheduled following the consultation. Clients will then proceed to have their first therapy appointment, in which I explore current practices that they have in place and work towards developing their skills from that point.
