It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, OCD, behavioral challenges, or illness affect you or your child. You don't have to face these challenges alone. As a licensed psychologist with more than 20 years of experience, I have helped children, adolescents, and adults develop practical skills, overcome obstacles, and move toward more meaningful, fulfilling lives.

Hi! I'm Isabella, and I can't wait to meet you! At Herr-Era, we're therapists for teens, college students, and young adults who are passionate about helping you build bold self-love and healthy boundaries.

If you're tired of feeling stuck, lost, unworthy, or alone, if anger has your relationships struggling, if you're battling depression, anxiety, stress, imposter syndrome, or trauma - you've come to the right place!

I have more than 30 years of experience in the behavioral health field and have been in private practice since 2003. I work with adults, older adults, adolescents, individuals, and families who are navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, grief, stress, relationship challenges, ADHD, anger, impulse control, substance use concerns, cultural or ethnic issues, and major life transitions. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology in Cuba in 1982 and later completed my Master’s degree at Florida International University in 1998. My background has shaped a warm, culturally sensitive, and practical approach to therapy.

I understand that reaching out for support can feel difficult at first. My goal is to help clients feel safe, respected, and supported as they take that courageous first step toward feeling better and becoming a healthier version of themselves.
