Deyanira Rivera
I identify as a proud Hispanic from the Dominican Republic, a Christian woman who was born in the U.S . While I lived in the Dominican Republic for some years, this experience allowed me to gain bicultural experience, which helped me connect authentically with diverse communities. I have 8 years experience working with individuals who struggle with trauma, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, and relationship issues. I am committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment where you can explore personal challenges and achieve mental health goals. I employ different therapy approaches based on your needs. Together, we will identify and change unhelpful thoughts, develop self-regulation skills, and navigate difficult relationships and situations. You will also learn how to process difficult memories, feel safe, regain control, and move forward in your life. If desired, I can also incorporate faith-based techniques to support your healing process.
