Great to meet you!

I applaud you for taking the steps necessary to heal. Whether you’re starting or returning to your search for a therapist, it has led you here. My name is Indira Larancuent, a second-generation Latina, clinical social worker and the first therapist in my Dominican family. My passion for mental wellness has naturally led me to advocate for it. We often prioritize our physical health, yet our emotional and mental well-being deserve the same care and attention. The mind can feel foggy, heavy or even tangled. My goal is to help you ease these mental manifestations by helping you gain the insight and clarity needed for healing.

My approach to therapy

I primarily work with adults impacted by traumatic experiences who have learned to push through, stay busy, or stay in control as a way to survive. Trauma can stem from experiences such as childhood or medical adversities, occupational stress, or other events that disrupt your sense of safety. If this resonates with you, you don't have to navigate it alone. My intent is to personalize your therapeutic journey to your own story, strengths, cultural background and learning style because therapy is not a one-size-fits-all. I draw from evidenced-based approaches like EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to tailor our sessions. Alongside these interventions, my creativity, compassion, and humor helps to cultivate the rapport that will support our work together.

What you can expect from me

You can expect me to be fully attentive and honest, not just as a therapist, but as a fellow human being. The first session gives us the opportunity to start building the foundation to begin your goal towards mental wellness and healing.
