Marienelly Vazquez LICSW

As a bicultural/bilingual therapist, I specialize in working with women and BIPOC folx healing from abuse, exploring cultural issues, and navigating life transitions or family conflict. Additionally, due to my decade of work in rape crisis and domestic violence advocacy, I'm especially passionate about supporting survivors who seek to reclaim their power, rebuild their sense of self, and recover from trauma. During treatment, I acknowledge and address how gender, culture, and institutional structures impact mental health, while using a feminist, strength-based lens to empower clients. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process and that people are the experts of their own life experiences. As a result, my style is eclectic and is tailored to each individual I meet with. I'm also person-centered, and interested identifying your existing strengths, assisting you in developing new coping skills, and promoting resilience from within. I'm here to offer a safe, compassionate therapeutic space where you can heal at your own pace. Reach out now—together, we can work toward your empowerment and recovery. You deserve the support you need in order to prosper and thrive!
