She’s really great! Really takes the time to understand where you’re coming from. After our session I had already felt so much more positive about the future!

More about Penelope Medina, LMHC

Bilingual Latina therapist helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges in a safe and affirming space Hi, I’m Penelope — I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, and communication issues. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based practices, including CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Person-Centered Therapy. I strive to meet you where you are and create a safe, affirming space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered—whether we’re speaking English or Spanish. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, build practical tools to manage life’s challenges, and move toward the version of life that feels most authentic to you.
