Great to meet you!

I’m Esther Romero, a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor offering therapy in English and Spanish. I specialize in trauma, with training in Cognitive Processing Therapy and Prolonged Exposure.

As a senior enlisted service member, I also bring firsthand understanding of military life and the demands of balancing service, family, and personal well-being. I strive to create a welcoming space where your culture, experiences, and values are respected, and where you can feel heard without judgment. You don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive. I work with you to understand your experiences, identify your strengths, and build practical tools that fit your life. I specialize in trauma and tailor treatment to your needs, goals, and readiness for change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance to get to know each other and explore what brings you to therapy. You can share at your own pace in a welcoming, nonjudgmental space. Together, we’ll discuss what you hope to change and identify initial goals so you leave with a clearer sense of our next steps.
