Lucia Sarmiento Verano | Anti-oppressive therapist
Confidential, neurodivergent-affirmative and culturally aware counselling. Society does not always provide safe and supportive spaces for everyone to understand their experiences. If this is your case, I might be able to help.
Counselling aims to provide a safe space for you to heal from painful experiences, to liberate yourself from what is deeply worrying you. This space will support you in gaining confidence, peace, and the knowledge to help you navigate harmful situations. Much of this work rests on the quality of the relationship with the therapist. Every relationship is unique so I will strive to collaborate with you authentically to create a space that responds to your needs.
Sessions can be held in English, Spanish, and/or French.
I can offer weekly or fortnightly sessions to suit specific scheduling or financial needs. I offer therapy Online via Zoom. Please enquire about availability.
