Heliana Ramirez

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


I am an anti-racist and LGBTQ-Affirming trauma therapist who has worked with veterans, military personnel, and civilians for 20+ years. I am honored to work with clients on their self-defined goals to achieve more peaceful and satisfying lives, especially as related to healing mental injuries from discrimination and abuse.

My areas of expertise include workplace trauma, racial trauma, institutional betrayal, suicide prevention, family scapegoat abuse, workplace mobbing, and self-acceptance in a hostile world.

As a Queer, Xicana of Mexican, Indigenous, Irish, and Czech ancestry who was raised by a gay parent, I know from lived experience, the importance of culturally-responsive care that recognizes the harm of systemic and interpersonal oppression and stigma. I delight in working with people from diverse backgrounds and lived experiences including neurodiversity, various religious and spiritual communities, and people living with visible and invisible disabilities.

As a care provider for a person living with long COVID, I understand the challenges and importance of COVID-cautious lifestyles for people who have compromised immune systems or who want to avoid long COVID.

With a BA from the University of California, Santa Cruz, an MSW from Washington University in St. Louis, and a PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, my practice is rooted in research, celebration of clients' cultural traditions, and awareness that mistreatment, disadvantage, and cruelty cause people to suffer.

I actively work to identify and eradicate my own biases through anti-racist somatic practice and train other clinicians in decolonizing mental health care, psychological safety, and anti-racist suicide prevention.

I use evidence-based practices of Written Exposure Therapy, Motivational Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Prolonged Exposure Therapy.

My work in therapy is focused on helping individuals heal from trauma through education, inner healing sessions, interventions, and effective communication techniques. I'll encourage and help enable you to heal from the wounds of dysfunctional families, abusive relationships, and from the mental and emotional distress of narcissistic and codependent relationships.

Here are what some clients have said about me in notes and texts sent to me:

"You have taught me so much about myself...I've worked with many counselors, but you're the first one to ever really understand me...I don't think I'll ever be able to work with anyone else after this".

"The work we have done together has been life changing. I actually knew what to do and say to my sister this past week...it was so rewarding and made me feel free from my past with her."

"I know the first session just happened a few days ago, but I had to text and tell you I learned more from you in that session than in all the years I've been in therapy. It's like you know me. And yes, I've washed my dishes and put them away every day since we met and I can't wait for next week."

" I wish I wasn't moving...I'll never find another therapist like you".

"I appreciate you bringing the best out in me. I was able to (redacted) at our family reunion, just like I did when I was younger and it felt so good to be recognized for myself, my gifts and my contribution to the party. I feel loved again".

"I just hope you know that you are the best therapist in the whole world".
