Yuranis Diaz Palmero

Hello, I am a psychologist who graduated from UCLV in Cuba.

In recent years, I have had the opportunity to provide psychotherapy to a wide range of Latino individuals and people with similar cultural backgrounds living in the United States. This experience has allowed me to develop a valuable perspective for understanding the unique challenges faced by this community through the lens of their personal history and cultural background. I have worked not only with immigrants, but also with their children and families who share similar life experiences.

Together, we have addressed emotional conflicts, feelings of insecurity, trauma, and various psychological disorders, promoting a better quality of life and greater emotional well-being.

I offer therapy in Spanish and specialize in providing a culturally sensitive space for the Hispanic community, where you can feel understood, valued, and safe to begin your healing and growth process.

Many of the difficulties we face can improve when we begin to view them from new perspectives and develop healthier coping strategies.

My commitment is to support you in a compassionate, respectful, and nonjudgmental way, helping you move forward from where you are today. Together, we will work to strengthen your self-understanding, build resilience, and develop practical tools that can lead to meaningful, lasting changes in your emotional well-being and daily life.

Mi enfoque terapéutico es holístico y flexible, reconociendo que las necesidades y experiencias de cada persona son únicas. En nuestras sesiones trabajaremos de manera colaborativa para fortalecer el funcionamiento cognitivo, conductual y emocional. El objetivo será promover el bienestar integral, mejorar el funcionamiento en la vida diaria y desarrollar habilidades efectivas de autorregulación que favorezcan un crecimiento personal duradero.

My approach to therapy is holistic and flexible, recognizing that each person’s needs and experiences are unique. In our sessions, we will work collaboratively to strengthen cognitive, behavioral, and emotional functioning. The focus will be on enhancing overall well-being, improving daily functioning, and developing effective self-regulation skills that support lasting personal growth.

En la primera sesión, mi objetivo es ayudar a los clientes a comenzar a afrontar de manera más efectiva sus problemas actuales y las fuentes de estrés. Considero la terapia como un proceso basado en la confianza y la seguridad, donde las personas pueden sentirse respetadas y libres para compartir sus experiencias.

Me esfuerzo por crear un ambiente de apoyo, empático y libre de juicios que favorezca una comunicación abierta. Juntos comenzaremos a explorar las preocupaciones, identificar fortalezas personales y aprender estrategias prácticas que promuevan la comprensión, el crecimiento y un cambio significativo.

In the first session, my goal is to help clients begin coping more effectively with their current problems and stressors. I view therapy as a process built on trust and confidence, where individuals feel safe and respected as they share their experiences. I strive to create a supportive and nonjudgmental atmosphere that encourages open communication. Together, we will begin exploring concerns, identifying strengths, and learning practical strategies to promote understanding, growth, and meaningful change.
