Great to meet you!

Lizandra Portalatin specializes in Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD and Perinatal & Postpartum Mood Disorders. Sometimes in life we find ourselves in a place where we need to talk with someone else about the burdens that we are carrying in our hearts and our minds. We know that we can't continue to go on this way but we don't know what to do to get out of it. As your counselor, I can provide a safe and secure place for you to find healing and restoration for your heart, mind, and body.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach is eclectic, utilizing trauma-informed CBT, DBT and EMDR therapies. I also offer Integrative Christian Counseling for those seeking assistance within the Christian faith.

What you can expect from our first session

I believe that each person is unique and follows his/her own individualized path to healing and restoration. I use a warm and empathic approach to come alongside each of my clients to help facilitate healing, wholeness and growth.
