Services at Encuéntrate Counseling & Consulting

Healing and growth look different for everyone. Below you’ll find the ways we can work together, from individual therapy and life coaching to immigration psychoalogical evaluations, speaking engagements, and professional consultations.

Each service is grounded in trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care and designed with first-gen, bicultural, and high-achieving professionals in mind.

Individual Therapy

Individual Therapy for Adults in Illinois (Virtual)

Virtual, trauma-informed therapy for adults in Illinois navigating anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, and burnout. Sessions available in English, Spanish, or Spanglish.


Therapy is a space to slow down, breathe, and hear yourself again.

In our work together, we might:

  • Explore how anxiety, perfectionism, and overthinking show up in your daily life

  • Process traumatic or painful experiences using EMDR (more information on EMDR Therapy) and other trauma-informed tools

  • Learn nervous system regulation skills to soothe, soften, and ground your body

  • Practice setting boundaries at work and with family without drowning in guilt

  • Rediscover joy, play, and rest as part of your healing (not a reward for productivity)

What Therapy Looks Like:

  • Format: 50-minute virtual sessions

  • Location: For adults residing anywhere in Illinois

  • Languages: English, Spanish, or Spanglish

  • Approach: EMDR, CBT, somatic and mindfulness practices, solution-focused and person-centered care, all culturally adapted

Life & Career Coaching

Guidance for First-Gen Professionals

A 3-month, bilingual coaching container for high-achieving, first-gen professionals ready to break burnout cycles, gain career clarity, and lead with confidence, without abandoning their roots.


Coaching is for you if you’re not necessarily seeking therapy, but you’re craving clarity, direction, and support as you make big moves in your career and life.

Together, we’ll:

  • Map where you are now: burnout patterns, career misalignment, or leadership challenges

  • Explore your identity as a first-gen professional — the guilt, pressure, and possibility

  • Clarify your next chapter: pivot, promotion, entrepreneurship, or realignment

  • Build boundaries, self-trust, and nervous system tools so change feels sustainable

  • Design a life and career that reflect your values, not just expectations

What’s Included:

  • 3-month private coaching program

  • Weekly 45-minute virtual sessions (12 total)

  • Monday–Friday voice note/text coaching support for check-ins, decisions, or grounding

  • Bilingual sessions: English, Spanish, or Spanglish

  • Tools like values exercises, vision planning, goal trackers, and career maps

Consultations for Students & Therapists

Mentorship for First-Gen Students & Baby Therapists

One-time or as-needed mentorship sessions for first-gen students, interns, and early-career therapists who want honest, culturally grounded support on their next professional steps.

These sessions are for you if you’re wondering:

  • How do I get into grad school or choose a program?

  • How do I navigate internship, supervision, or licensing?

  • How do I start or grow a private practice?

  • How do I prepare for a workshop, panel, or mental health event?

We’ll spend 60 or 90 minutes focused on your questions, your path, and your options — so you leave with clarity, resources, and next steps.
