Getting to know Blanca Vela

Hello, I'm Blanca, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 11 years of experience working with children, adolescents, families, individuals, and couples. My journey in mental health has allowed me to support clients through various challenges, including trauma, crisis intervention, PTSD, bereavement and loss, depression, anxiety, sexual assault, domestic violence, at-risk youth, homelessness, LGBTQIA issues, juvenile criminal offenders, couples and marriage therapy, family therapy, multicultural and blended families, immigration, dual diagnosis, behavior modification, and suicide prevention/intervention. My approach to therapy is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral and Solution-Focused Therapy. I believe in offering compassionate support and guidance during life's challenging moments. I understand that seeking help can be daunting, and my goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can freely express yourself. Together, we will work on overcoming obstacles and achieving your life goals by tapping into your resilience, strength, and potential. I hold a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy and Counseling, and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Criminal Justice specializing in Violence Prevention and Intervention. Additionally, I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with a broader range of clients. Building a strong therapeutic alliance is at the heart of my practice. I prioritize fostering trust and collaboration to facilitate growth and healing. Your courage in taking the first step towards therapy is commendable, and I am here to support you on your journey towards personal development and well-being. Thank you for considering me as your therapist. Let's work together to navigate the path to a healthier and more fulfilling life.
