I’m glad you’re here! I’m Pearl Velasquez, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Latina trauma therapist serving adults throughout Texas and Colorado. I specialize in childhood sexual abuse, interpersonal abuse, complex PTSD (C-PTSD), generational trauma, emotional abuse, attachment wounds, and anxiety. My approach is warm, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed, focusing on nervous system regulation, rebuilding self-trust, and creating healthier relationships.
In addition to trauma therapy, I have completed specialized training in immigration psychological evaluations, including VAWA, U Visa, T Visa, and Extreme Hardship cases. I provide comprehensive, trauma-informed assessments that document the psychological impact of abuse, trauma, and family separation. Whether you're seeking healing or an immigration evaluation, my goal is to provide a supportive space where your experiences are heard, understood, and respected.
