Affirming Individual Therapy
& Counseling
We know that healing and growth aren’t just possible—they’re within you already. Life can be overwhelming, and navigating challenges alone can feel exhausting, but you don’t have to do it by yourself. Our team of dedicated therapists is here to offer a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported.
We provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and evidence-based individual therapy for teens (12+), adults, and families, because no one’s healing journey looks the same. Your path to self-discovery and fulfillment is unique, and so is the way we approach therapy. We take the time to understand who you are—your experiences, your identities, your strengths—so we can tailor our work together in a way that actually makes sense for you.
Individual Therapy: A Space for Growth, Healing, and Self-Discovery
Therapy is a space for you to explore what’s on your mind—whether it’s stress, relationships, past experiences, or patterns you’re ready to break. It’s a judgment-free zone where we work together to understand what’s been weighing on you and identify what’s no longer serving you. Sessions are typically 45 to 55 minutes long and scheduled regularly, but the frequency and duration are tailored to your unique needs. Through meaningful conversations, we’ll uncover insights, build coping skills, and find ways to help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Our Culturally-Affirming, Anti-Oppressive & Decolonized Approach
At the Aguirre Center for Inclusive Psychotherapy, we believe that true healing happens when therapy honors your cultural identity and lived experiences. Our approach is rooted in culturally affirming care and decolonized therapeutic practices—meaning we don’t just acknowledge systemic oppression, we actively work against it. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
-
Therapists Who Truly Get It: Our team of BIPOC therapists deeply understands the complexities of culture, family expectations, and the impact of racism, microaggressions, and discrimination. You won’t have to over-explain your experiences—we already recognize them and create a space where they are validated and honored.
-
Your Identity at the Center: We see your cultural heritage, traditions, and values as strengths, not obstacles. Instead of framing cultural differences as "problems," we embrace them as essential to your healing process.
-
Naming and Navigating Systemic Oppression: Mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum—systemic inequities shape our emotional well-being. Our intersectional approach helps you recognize, navigate, and push back against these forces while reclaiming your own power and agency.
-
Community and Ancestral Wisdom as Healing Tools: Healing isn’t just an individual journey. We integrate collective and intergenerational resilience, drawing on cultural practices, ancestral knowledge, and the power of connection to support your growth.
-
LGBTQIA+ and Sex-Positive Affirmation: Our practice is inclusive of diverse identities and relationship structures, offering informed, affirming care for those navigating non-traditional dynamics in both personal and professional spheres.
-
A New Vision of Wellness: Wellness isn’t one-size-fits-all. We redefine it in ways that align with your cultural values, integrating emotional, spiritual, and relational well-being—not just Western ideals of mental health.
At our practice, therapy isn’t about fitting into dominant narratives—it’s about embracing who you are and healing on your own terms. If you’re looking for a space where your identity is affirmed and your healing is rooted in cultural pride and empowerment, we’re here for you. Reach out today to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward a therapy experience that truly honors you.
