Great to meet you!

Hello! I’m Dina Araujo, a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and Educational Consultant with over 20 years of experience empowering students, families, and educators.

My passion lies in bridging education and mental health to help children, adolescents, and women thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. I specialize in women’s issues, supporting clients through life transitions, stress, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and identity development.

Through a compassionate and culturally responsive approach, I aim to create a safe, empowering space where clients can heal, grow, and rediscover balance in every aspect of their lives.

My approach to therapy

Therapeutic Services

Anxiety and Depression Management Helping clients understand and manage anxiety, stress, and mood changes through evidence-based interventions that foster calm, confidence, and clarity.

Women’s Issues Providing a compassionate and empowering space for women navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, motherhood, identity, and self-worth. My goal is to help women reconnect with their inner strength, set healthy boundaries, and cultivate balance and purpose in their lives.

Youth Counseling Supporting children and adolescents in managing academic pressure, social challenges, and emotional regulation. I focus on building self-esteem, problem-solving skills, and positive coping strategies for lasting growth.

Trauma-Informed Care Offering a safe, culturally sensitive environment for clients to process and heal from trauma. My approach promotes emotional safety, empowerment, and self-compassion throughout the healing journey.

Parent Coaching Guiding parents to create supportive, nurturing environments that strengthen connection, improve communication, and enhance their children’s emotional and academic development.

What you can expect from me

Therapy can help you gain greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being while developing the tools needed to navigate life's challenges. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, life transitions, or burnout, therapy provides a supportive and nonjudgmental space to heal, grow, and build resilience. Through the therapeutic process, clients often learn healthier coping strategies, improve communication and boundaries, strengthen self-esteem, process difficult experiences, and create meaningful, lasting changes that support a more balanced and fulfilling life.
