Great to meet you!

My name is Dr. Gilberto Herrera-Silva, Counseling Psychologist and Director of the Department of Counseling and Psychological Services at the University of Puerto Rico in Aguadilla (IACS, Inc., accredited since 2015). I have been working in the field of psychology since 1994. Most of my experience has been working with young adults (18-25), and children (3-9) victims of abuse and neglect.

My approach to therapy

I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space where you can openly share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Sessions will be tailored to your unique needs, goals and preferences, ensuring that the process is as effective and comfortable for you as possible.

What you can expect from me

Please know this is a collaborative process, and your active participation will be key to the success of our journey. I encourage you to be open and honest in our sessions, and I will do my outmost to provide you with the empathy, understanding, and professional guidance you deserve.
