Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm Perla — a Licensed Professional Counselor passionate about helping children and young adults navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem.

I have specialized training in the assessment and treatment of eating disorders, and I'm committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for individuals navigating their relationship with food and body image.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy is not a one‐size‐fits‐all experience, so I tailor my work to each client’s unique needs, drawing from evidence‐based practices such as CBT, ACT, DBT, and humanistic approaches to foster self‐awareness, healing, growth, and lasting change.

What you can expect from me

I specialize in working with children (as young as 6 years-old), adolescents, and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and self-esteem. As a trauma-informed therapist, creating a space where clients feel safe, understood, and validated is one of my highest priorities.
