Getting to know Dinayra Sorando Rivera
Therapy is a space to slow down and be real. I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including Latino/Latine and LGBTQ+ clients, children, young adults, couples, and athletes navigating identity, stress, or performance pressure. I offer therapy in English and Spanish. My approach is direct, honest, and collaborative. I meet clients where they are while gently challenging patterns that may no longer serve them. Together, we focus on building insight, practical coping skills, and meaningful, lasting change.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When working with me, you can expect a supportive, respectful, and nonjudgmental space where you are encouraged to show up as you are. My approach is collaborative and culturally responsive, and I value building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and understanding. I am also direct in a thoughtful and compassionate way. This means I will gently but honestly help you explore patterns, reflect on behaviors, and gain insight, while always remaining mindful of your comfort and readiness for change. Together, we will work at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on growth, clarity, and meaningful progress toward your goals.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process begins with creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can openly share your experiences. I understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Together, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy, identify patterns or challenges, and clarify your goals. Along the way, I’ll help you recognize your strengths, develop practical tools, and build insight to support meaningful change. Therapy is a collaborative process, and we’ll work together to support your growth and well-being throughout your journey.

More information on payments and coverage
At Arcus Behavioral Health & Wellness, we strive to make the payment and insurance process as transparent and stress-free as possible. We work with a variety of insurance plans and will verify your benefits prior to your first appointment whenever possible. This includes reviewing your coverage, copays, deductibles, and any out-of-pocket costs so there are no surprises.
Payment is due at the time of service. We accept major credit and debit cards, and payments can be made securely through our client portal. If you are using insurance, we will submit claims on your behalf; however, clients are responsible for any portion not covered by their plan.
