Getting to know Siu Viera
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York and New Jersey with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported as you work toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
I work primarily with adults navigating anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, as well as relationship and parenting concerns. I have a special focus on helping individuals heal from the lasting impact of difficult parental relationships and secondary trauma, supporting you in making sense of your experiences and moving forward with greater clarity and self-understanding. Additionally, I work closely with immigrants and first-generation individuals, offering dedicated support around immigration-related stress, cultural identity, and the complexities of intergenerational family dynamics.
My approach is person-centered and guided by your unique experiences and goals. I aim to build a strong, trusting relationship where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts, emotions, and patterns at your own pace. To best support you, I draw from evidence-based practices tailored to your needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Strengths-Based Therapy.
My ultimate goal is for you to feel empowered, supported, and more connected to yourself. Together, we’ll work towards helping you better understand your experiences, process your emotions, and build practical skills to navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.
What should a new client know about working with you?
What you should know about me is that I view therapy as a truly collaborative partnership, and my primary goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel genuinely heard and empowered. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, and life adjustments, with a deep focus on healing from difficult parental relationships, managing secondary trauma, and navigating the unique cultural and intergenerational complexities faced by immigrants and first-generation individuals. In our sessions, we will move at your own pace. My approach is entirely person-centered, meaning I tailor my use of evidence-based practices—like CBT, EMDR, and Strengths-Based Therapy—to your unique goals, equipping you with practical tools to process your emotions and face life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process is deeply collaborative, person-centered, and tailored entirely to your unique pace and goals. We begin by building a strong, trusting relationship where you can safely explore your thoughts, emotions, and behavioral patterns without judgment. From there, we work together to make sense of your experiences—whether you are navigating everyday stressors like anxiety and life adjustments, or processing deeper challenges related to family dynamics, cultural identity, or secondary trauma. Throughout our time together, I integrate evidence-based tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and Strengths-Based Therapy into our sessions. This ensures that you aren't just processing your emotions, but are also walking away with practical, real-world strategies to build resilience and navigate life's challenges with confidence.
