Millianys Garcia
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can finally exhale. As a bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist, I understand the importance of feeling heard, respected, and truly understood. I place a strong emphasis on building a genuine therapeutic relationship from the beginning, because I believe meaningful change starts with trust. My clients have described me as warm, compassionate, understanding, and easy to talk to. I meet each person where they are without judgment and work alongside them to navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, life transitions, and the challenges that can sometimes feel overwhelming. If you’re ready to take that first step, I invite you to reach out. You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy—you just need a safe place to begin.

Jamilet Calderon
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
With over 14 years of clinical experience, I specialize in helping women and first-generation/Latina professionals break cycles of codependency, quiet perfectionism, and reclaim their identity. Many of my clients appear to have it all together on the outside, but internally face overwhelming cultural expectations, anxiety, and a loud inner critic. Together, we will work to restructure that inner critic, establish fierce boundaries, and foster a radical sense of self-love.
