Getting to know Martha Pereira

I’m a bilingual first-generation Latina Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I am passionate about working with individuals who are navigating life transitions, grief, anxiety, and family dynamics. I have provided therapy in different settings such as hospitals, communities, and clinics. In my therapy practice, I provide compassion, empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental environment. I would be honored to join you on this journey toward overcoming life challenges, increasing coping skills, and creating lasting change. My approach My approach to therapy is strength-based and client-centered. Some of the different therapeutic approaches I utilize are evidence-based practices such as Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered approach, family systems, and motivational interviewing. My focus I specialize in working with young adults, adults, and older adults navigating through life transitions, grief, anxiety, and family dynamics. As a bilingual therapist, I provide cultural competence to help build a strong therapeutic alliance. My communication style My communication style is personable, understanding, and supportive. I'm here to remind you that you don't have to embark on life transitions and changes in life alone. My hope is that you find the space I cultivate, safe, where you feel heard, seen, and respected. Let's begin on this journey together. My first session with you During the initial session, my clients can expect a welcoming and nonjudgmental environment. We will discuss ground rules and I will ask questions to gain a better understanding of what brought them to therapy and any expectations/questions they may have during our time together.
