Daniela Guerrero

My communication style

My style is personable and informal. I use a mix of different modalities to help cater to your individual needs. For example, we might incorporate nature-informed therapy into your EMDR or CBT. I believe in treating the trauma first and seeing what is left. I have a gentle yet direct approach, so people don't shut down when challenged.

My journey to mental healthcare

I experienced mental health challenges myself and continue to live with chronic mental illness. I aimed to change the parts of treatment that harmed me as a child. I wanted to support the Latinx community in exploring mental health and destigmatizing conversations about struggles.

My goals for you

I spend a great deal of time building a connection with clients so that we can get to a place of vulnerability that feels comfortable. I incorporate science, reflection, warmth, and humor into sessions to help build a safe space for you. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is collaborative, not authoritative.

Our first session

Our first session is a “get-to-know-you” session where I will go over your history and interests. I try my hardest to never push clients too far where there is emotional flooding. I will go at your pace, and we will build a relationship before diving into some of the tougher experiences you have had.
