About
Dr. Herrera

Welcome. Bienvenido. I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) speaking psychologist with over 15 years of experience treating adults, youth, and families. I have worked in college counseling centers, children's crisis clinics, and community mental health clinics helping clients from various ethnic, cultural, and economic backgrounds. I have worked with a range of populations, from people facing extreme emotional crises, to college students adjusting to life away from home.
Every person is unique and has different needs, and my approach is based on your specific situation. My goal is to collaborate with you and create an environment that feels comfortable, accepting, and affirming of your lived experience. I prioritize the therapeutic relationship and the ability to heal through connection and empathy.
