Healing through connection
Despertares Counseling was founded on the belief that true healing happens through connection—both with ourselves and with others. We recognize that a deep sense of aloneness often fuels pain, and our mission is to create a space where no one has to navigate their struggles alone.
AS A GROUP OF TRAUMA, ANXIETY, AND RELATIONSHIP THERAPISTS, WE CENTER OUR WORK AROUND THE IDEA OF UNDOING ALONENESS IN A SPACE THAT’S DEEPLY HUMAN, APPROACHABLE, AND KIND TO ALL EXPERIENCES.
What makes us unique is our specialized approach. Rather than a generalist practice, each therapist on our team is specifically trained to support individuals and relationships in healing from trauma and relational wounds in a way that is tailored to their unique experiences.
As a collaborative and close-knit team, we engage in weekly consultations, ongoing supervision, and advanced training in evidence-based trauma and relationship therapies, ensuring the highest level of care for those we serve.

Whole-Person Healing Through Compassionate Therapy
A Safe Space for Growth
Despertares Counseling is a collective of dedicated therapists committed to offering a safe, compassionate, and transformative therapeutic experience for every client. The vision for Despertares Counseling was born from a desire to provide deep, meaningful therapy in a space that feels warm, inclusive, and honors the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
Our therapists work with individuals, couples, and families, walking alongside each client through their unique journey of healing, personal growth, and deeper connection. In your sessions, you can expect genuine connection, emotional attunement, and thoughtful collaboration. Together, you and your therapist will explore the experiences that bring you to therapy and identify goals that reflect your most important needs. Our therapists offer a nurturing space where your story is held with care, and where healing is approached holistically.
A Space for Understanding, Healing, and Transformation.
Our mission and values
connection centered APPROACH
You deserve support and connection! It’s easy to feel like you’re facing everything alone—but you don’t have to. Our team of therapists understands that true healing begins with connection—both with ourselves and others—while disconnection often fuels our deepest struggles. Our approach is rooted in compassion, connection, and a deep respect for the whole person. We understand that each client carries a unique story, shaped by experiences, relationships, culture, and inner values. We honor your pace, your process, and deeply believe in your capacity to heal.
