Hello, My name is Laura Vega Granados, a Latina Marriage and Family Therapist. I am deeply committed to supporting my clients through their healing from trauma, adversity and empowering them to heal and rebuild. As a Latina therapist, I combine my cultural insight with professional expertise, to offer more personalized and effective trauma therapy. I am most experienced in supporting women through their historical trauma and aim to help them let go of people-pleasing and codependency tendencies that are no longer serving them.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session aims to build a strong rapport and establish a foundation of trust and understanding. Here's how it typically unfolds: I ask open-ended questions to encourage you to share your thoughts and feelings. This helps me gain insight into your concerns and establishes a collaborative dialogue. Together we discuss your goals for therapy and any immediate concerns you might have. I clearly outline the confidentiality of our sessions and the boundaries of our therapeutic relationship, reinforcing a sense of security and trust.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Coming from a Latino family with tons of intergenerational trauma, I have a profound understanding of the unique challenges faced by underserved communities, such as system inequalities, limited access to resources, and cultural barriers. This insight motivates me to address these issues with sensitivity and effectiveness.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am most passionate in working with humans who are motivated and determined to work through their inner wounds that keep them in an unhealthy cycle. Together we will explore unhealthy coping mechanisms that are no longer helpful and we will work on healing and rebuilding so that they can become their best self.
