More about Yadira

- LCSW
Hi! I’m Yadira, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a chilled, approachable style so you feel comfortable and understood. I’m bilingual (English/Spanish) and fluent in Spanglish—because sometimes the right expression comes when languages mix. I help adults facing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I use CBT, DBT, and IFS to offer practical tools. If you want therapy that feels relatable, not cold or clinical, this is a space to be yourself and feel genuinely seen.
