Mercedes Ledesma, LCSW

Psychotherapist
PA
Hi, I’m Mercedes. I’m a bilingual (English | Spanish) psychotherapist who supports individuals navigating complex trauma, including experiences of abuse, migration, and high-stress life transitions. Life can look “together” on the outside while feeling overwhelming underneath. Many of the people I work with have spent years being strong for others pushing through anxiety, overthinking, emotional exhaustion, or patterns that don’t quite make sense. You might find yourself asking: Why do I feel this way when things are finally going well? Why is it so hard to relax, trust, or feel fully present? Why do I keep repeating the same patterns? You don’t have to keep figuring this out alone. In our work together, we focus on helping you understand the patterns shaped by trauma, regulate your nervous system, and create meaningful, lasting change. I integrate evidence-based practices such as CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and mindfulness to support you in a way that feels both structured and compassionate. Together, we’ll create a space where you can exhale where your story is understood, your resilience is recognized, and your growth happens at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. Reaching out for support can feel like a big step. If you’re ready for things to feel different, we can start there.
