Lolanda Daluz, LPC

Therapy

I have been a community therapist for over ten years. I have been trained and certified as a trauma-focused therapist and CSEC. However, I also reach back to psychoanalytic on early psychosexual and psychosocial development by exploring the past to address all issues. Something brought you here, something is driving you to find answers, to stop the pain, to stop feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed. Something is affecting you, your relationships, career, school, etc. You can heal by doing the inner work, it does not have to exist forever. Let me help you in your journey.
