I have been a therapist for over 50 years. I have a great deal of experience and have been in my own therapy so I know both sides of therapy. I am a Masters Level Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Four years ago I was exposed to Richard Schwartz and fell in love with his Internal Family Systems Model. I felt this is the model I’ve been looking for all my life. That’s the model I use in working with clients.

Dr. Pedro J Rivera Santana

Psychologist

Virtual • Virginia


Many of the young people I work with come to me feeling trapped. It's as if the weight of what they're carrying is too heavy to put into words, and they're not sure anyone will understand. Anxiety and depression can make the world feel impossibly small, and for some, those feelings have led to self-harm or thoughts of suicide. I specialize in working with teens and young people, though I welcome clients of all ages — because feeling stuck doesn't come with an age limit.

Life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, or the transitions that come with different stages of life. You don't have to navigate these experiences alone. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward meaningful change from an eclectic evidenced based approach that promotes hope, stability, and wellness, including faith-based perspective.

I specialize in working with adults and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, intimate relationship conflict, and couples counseling.I believes my purpose is to assist individuals to live life healthy and with hope.

I have extensive experience with substance abuse, holding a previous Certified Alcohol Drug Certificate (CADC) in Illinois, previous certification as an Emergency Services Prescreener with mental health, certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional, trained in level 2 of the Gottman Couples Method, experienced with anxiety, depression, grief & loss, and intimate relationship conflict. I received an outstanding excellent therapy award in 2021 and am committed to lives being changed. I am inspired daily by my husband, two adult children, and in love with my five grandchildren. In my spare time I love exercising, running miles, and reading educational/spiritual literature to keep myself sharp to assist others in sharpen themselves.
