Oylime Ibarra

Hi, I’m Oylime “Vicky” Ibarra, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and the founder of Healing Through Courage. I’m also a wife, mom, and pet mom — roles that remind me every day that life can be beautiful, stressful, and overwhelming all at once.​Opening this practice has been a lifelong dream and a return to what I’ve always felt called to do: sit with people in their hardest moments and help them reconnect with their own strength. After years working in hospitals, community programs, and leading trauma-responsive initiatives, I’ve learned one truth – everyone struggles, and no one should have to do it alone.

My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, compassion, and authenticity. In therapy, there is room to feel whatever you feel — to cry, laugh, be angry, or simply have days when you’re not okay. Healing isn’t about perfection; it’s about safety, connection, and giving yourself permission to start again at your own pace.​At Healing Through Courage, my goal is to create a space where you can breathe, be honest, and feel seen, because sometimes being truly heard is the first step toward healing.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can connect, talk briefly about what’s bringing you here, and see if my approach feels like the right fit for your needs.
