She acquired her Master of Social Work degree from the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Social Policy & Practice with the goal of providing psychotherapy to populations experiencing complex and ambient trauma as a result of marginalization.

Her clinical experience includes assisting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, race-based trauma, LGBTQIA concerns, self-image concerns, academic distress, work-related stress, family conflict, relationship concerns and isolation.

Tuera uses a client-centered, psychodynamic approach. She provides psychoeducation and homework for between sessions.

Tuera’s goal is to create a space in which clients feel safe as well as empowered as they explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Her client-centered approach creates space for each client to determine their own goals for treatment. Ultimately, she aims to restore clients with a sense of control and balance.
