María Serrano (ella/she)

My approach is trauma-informed, LGBT+ affirming, and rooted in Health at Every Size & Intuitive Eating. In my work, I incorporate somatic practices that call upon the body’s wisdom, as well as DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and mindfulness (borrowed from Buddhist practice) to expand our capacity to navigate and withstand life’s challenges. I offer a space where we can process the effects of white supremacy, anti-Black and anti-Indigenous racism, anti-fat bias, transphobia, ableism and colorism. I prioritize accountability and seek to make space for collective learning.

All people in all bodies are deserving of respect and care. Healing is for everyone, and it can be all the more powerful when rooted in our unique cultural experiences. I invite you to bring your whole self into therapy! No es fácil pedir ayuda y el estigma de buscar apoyo para nuestra salud mental a veces nos impide obtener la tranquilidad que merecemos. Como terapeuta, deseo acompañarte y juntes colaborar para realizar el cambio que tú deseas. Ofrezco terapia en Inglés, Español y Spanglish.
