Healing Rooted in Culture…. Therapy that Sees You
Have you ever felt like you're drowning in everything—depression, anxiety, and family drama—while trying to keep your head above water?
It’s hard when you're dealing with depression, anxiety, and family drama—it can feel like you’re carrying a ton on your own. And as a person of color, there's always that pressure to stay strong and keep it together, even when you’re struggling.
But here’s the thing: you don’t have to do it alone. Therapy might seem like a big step, but it’s actually a really important one for your mental health.
You deserve someone who gets what you're going through, someone who understands your background and what you’ve been through. Your mental health matters—taking care of yourself is worth it!
Hi, I’m Jhoana, a First Generation Latina Therapist in Los Angeles.
As a Latina therapist, I’m passionate about helping people of color manage the weight of anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I know firsthand how cultural pressures, societal expectations, and personal challenges can impact mental health.
I’m here to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, build resilience, and create a path toward a more balanced and peaceful life.
Why Online Therapy??
Curious about trying therapy but were met with judgment from family or friends? You’ve probably heard things like “only crazy people go to therapy” or “what happens in this family stays in this family”. Hearing these things can push us further into a closed off box where we feel alone, misunderstood, and helpless- allowing our depression and anxiety to grow.
Here are some common reasons to break mental health stigmas and seek help from the comfort of your home:
Balancing Between Two or More Cultures
Feeling Down, Depressed, or Sad
Facing Pressure to Assimilate
Struggling with Family Expectations and/or Cultural Norms
Feeling Anxious, Nervous, or Having Panic Attacks
Intergenerational Trauma
Feeling Like You Don’t Belong (“Ni de Aquí, Ni de Allá”)
Stress of Navigating “Code Switching”
The Desire to Break Cycles of Toxicity in Family or Community
Going to therapy as a person of color can look very different from the normative culture. That’s why it’s important to seek help from someone that sees you.
