Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Henderson, NV

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist who works with individuals and couples to grow their inner strengths, to help them make sense of their feelings and to heal any past trauma that might be keeping them from moving forward.

Hi! I'm Graciela. I am a bilingual trauma-focused therapist with advanced ivy-league training, graduate level education, extensive clinical experience — and a whole lot of grit in my no-nonsense approach to therapy. You can expect me to be authentic and real, down to earth, wise, and validating as we work together to help you feel better and reach your treatment goals as soon as we can. My job is to put myself out of the job as soon as possible. See you at the top!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with an emphasis in childhood psychology. My educational background has shaped my understanding of how early life experiences, attachment, and childhood development can influence our current thoughts, behaviors, relationships, and emotional responses.

Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, including Behavioral Skills Training (BST), Psychosocial Rehabilitation (PSR), and case management with foster youth. These experiences provided me with a strong foundation in understanding trauma, family systems, emotional development, and the impact of life experiences on mental health. I have experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, and chronic stress.

I believe healing begins when individuals feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized to each client's unique experiences and goals. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based interventions, Polyvagal Theory, and somatic approaches.

I work with adults from diverse backgrounds and am passionate about helping clients build emotional resilience, strengthen relationships, improve self-esteem, and develop practical coping skills. Whether you're processing trauma, navigating a major life transition, working through relationship challenges, or simply seeking greater self-understanding, my goal is to help you feel empowered, supported, and equipped to move forward with confidence.

Hello, I am a psychotherapist, and I currently accept new individual clients. My area of expertise is holding space for clients in deeper levels of healing and achieving self-leadership and self-compassion. The ultimate goal for healing is to safely rebuild and rewire our neuro-network, attachment, and autonomic nervous system. I have been a Vegas local for 16 years, after living in China for 19 years. I am proficient in both languages, and my practice integrates both modern western science and ancient eastern wisdom, to hold space for you navigating the world, through different walks of life.

Hello! If you are like many people today experiencing burnout, struggling with boundaries, trying to squeeze in one more errand on your list, and or lacking purpose, I may be the provider for you! There is hope and prioritizing your mental health can help you in all areas of your life. As a licensed professional counselor, I understand the role of mental health in improving overall life satisfaction and joy. Let's work together to help you achieve more balance and more peace!

You’ve talked about it. You understand it. But you still feel it.

I specialize in individual EMDR therapy for adults whose past continues to affect the present.

You may understand why you react the way you do, yet painful memories, anxiety, grief, abandonment, betrayal, relationship triggers, or body reactions still feel difficult to control.

My practice is intentionally EMDR-focused. We work efficiently to understand your history, identify the memories and current triggers keeping you stuck, prepare you for the EMDR process, and move into reprocessing once you are ready.

The goal is not to erase what happened. It is to help you remember it without continuing to feel as though you are still living inside it.

I currently work with individual clients only and am not accepting couples.

In-person EMDR is available in Las Vegas, with virtual therapy available throughout Nevada.

I believe in the power of F.E.E.L - Focusing on Embracing Emotions & Learning to cope. Emotions are the essence of who we are; they shape our experiences & define our stories. With me, every feeling, no matter its size, is celebrated & embraced. I help people navigate their healing journey & support them while they reflect on their problems, discover their true emotions, learn the appropriate skills, & gain a better understanding of themselves to help them reach their best version of themselves.

Began my career as a case manager, working with children and young adults experiencing challenges managing their emotions. Working with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, I then completed my Masters in Counseling degree, withan emphasis on Marriage, Family and Child therapy. My experience assisting in Couples counseling sessions has encouraged me to focus on the "Union's" and the "Individual's" needs of the relationship. Providing stress management skills for phase of life transition for the younger and older population has been my pleasure.
