Hi, I'm Yaritza!
(she/her/hers/ella)
Hola! I'm Yaritza De Jesus, LCPC, a bilingual/multicultural psychotherapist helping people heal generational wounds, build confidence, and break toxic cycles. My style is warm, real, and rooted in cultura, where you’re met with understanding, not judgment. I specialize in working with Latina women who are ready to heal from the past, break cycles, and reconnect with their inner strength. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, or simply trying to understand why you feel stuck, therapy can be a powerful space for growth and clarity. In our sessions, you can expect a supportive environment where you feel seen, heard, and empowered.
​
I offer a space that is culturally responsive, honest, and compassionate. I draw upon a variety of evidence-based modalities to tailor interventions that will meet the specific needs and goals of each client. I also incorporate humor in the process to foster connection and resilience. Sometimes laughter is the best medicine.
​
While I’m especially passionate about supporting the Latinx community, I welcome people from all backgrounds who are ready to heal, grow, and reclaim their voice. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, you don’t have to face it alone. Reach out—if it feels like we’re the right fit, we’ll begin the journey of healing together.

I see you.
You may be feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you—carrying emotional pain that began long before you. Perhaps you're healing from a breakup, navigating family conflict, or managing the weight of intergenerational stress.
​
Or maybe you're not in crisis at all. You simply want to understand yourself more deeply, strengthen your relationships, or show up more fully in your life—with confidence, clarity, and purpose.
​
Therapy can support both healing and growth. I offer a space that is culturally responsive, honest, and compassionate—where you can explore who you are, where you come from, and who you want to become.

Virtual Services

Individual Therapy
Embark on a journey of personal growth and self-discovery through individual therapy sessions. I work from a relational, trauma-informed perspective, helping clients make sense of their experiences with compassion and depth. CBT tools are used to support clarity, coping, and sustainable growth.

Immigration Evaluations
I provide immigration psychological evaluations for individuals seeking legal relief such as asylum, VAWA petitions, U visas, T visas, and hardship waivers. These evaluations are compassionate, culturally responsive assessments that document psychological experiences relevant to immigration proceedings and include a formal written affidavit for legal use.

Couples Therapy
Strengthen your relationship and deepen your connection with couples therapy sessions. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I can help you explore effective communication strategies, navigate conflicts, and change the negative patterns by identifying the underlying emotions and attachment needs of the couple.

Group or Individual Supervision
I provide culturally responsive supervision for pre-licensed counselors or practicing therapists by offering guidance, support, and mentorship to help you navigate the complexities of the counseling profession. Gain valuable insights and enhance your skills through supervision.
