Getting to know Elizabeth Guerra

I hope these words find you in a good way. My name is Elizabeth A. Guerra, LCSW, and it is with great care and compassion that I invite you into space. As a survivor of many life adversities and challenges myself, I understand that healing and understanding oneself is unique to each individual and is rooted in our ways of knowing. My approach I take a strength and resilience-based approach in holding space, which is centered on empathy and compassion. My intentions are to create a safe space for you to offer your goals and intentions. We will work together in creating a space that feels grounding and empowering for you to walk this road of self-discovery and healing. My focus I take a holistic approach to my work and integrate lived experiences, including environmental and intergenerational, to support the healing journey of self-exploration. I meet you where you're at and build off of your strengths and ways of knowing to meet your goal. I honor your story and invite you to bring your full, authentic self into space. My communication style I center myself with empathy and compassion and offer good intentions in space. Healing requires the system to feel safe and supported, and I hold this with care and a deep understanding. I will meet you in space with kindness and warmth and invite you to explore your inner world at your own pace. My journey to mental healthcare I'm a Chicana and first-generation clinician from Oakland with roots from Guadalajara Mexico & Yaqui ancestry. I am an artist, poet, and healer within my circle and practice traditional plant medicine and other ways of knowing which were taught to me by my Elders. These roots guide my path as a healer and are my foundation in how I cultivate space. My goals for you I integrate your strengths, ways of knowing, and somatic interventions to support restoring the mind-body connection. I will work with you in cultivating coping skills and self-care practices that align with you and your full self.
