Our Talk
Therapy Services
At Latinx Talk Therapy, we understand the obstacles our clients may face when suffering symptoms of mental health conditions like depression, anxiety and panic, trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder, relationship issues, grief, and addiction. We are also aware of the barriers the Latinx community might face related to disparities in wages, education, discrimination, and access to resources.
No matter what challenges you’re trying to overcome, Latinx Talk Therapy can help. We are devoted to helping clients enhance their mental well-being so they can live happier, more fulfilling lives.
Our Expertise
Hablamos Español
Opening up to a Spanish therapist involves much more than sharing words. When an individual works with someone who speaks their native language, it not only ensures the emotions behind those words will be understood but also ensures the therapist will recognize the cultural context of what is being said. A lingual and cultural connection creates a much-needed bond, one that facilitates comfort, authenticity, and meaning.
Trauma is an individual’s emotional and physiological response to a distressing experience. With PTSD and trauma therapy, you’ll be able to process and integrate the negative emotional responses your traumatic event creates. No two individuals live the same experiences. As such, it’s necessary to seek honest, compassionate therapy services when it comes to PTSD and trauma.

Hay Que Hablar!
- At Latinx Talk Therapy, we care about your emotional and mental well-being.
- We are proud to be a Latinx-owned and operated therapy clinic.
- Our clinical therapists have Latinx backgrounds and are familiar with the mental and emotional struggles our community experiences. This includes mental health challenges like inequity, racial disparities, stigma “no estoy loco,” a need for Spanish fluent therapists, privacy concerns “el que diran,” and cultural differences.
- We hear you, and we understand what you’re going through.
- Our goal is to help you put your traumatic experiences in the past so you can achieve a positive and uplifting future. We do so by building healing, healthy connections with our clients and offering our guidance and empathy.

Love her. First visit was great. She’s easy to open up to and by the end of the session she went over the steps that we will be taking to improve every aspect of my life. Excited to continue seeing her to make the long-overdue and much-needed changes needed in my life.

Ernestina is the best therapist I have ever had. She’s attentive, truly listens to me, remembers the details of my life, and I feel like she genuinely cares. I also appreciate her knowledge of how the brain works physically and how that translates to emotions and thoughts…

I really enjoyed meeting and working with Ernestina Perez. She has been great.

Dr. Perez was lovely. She was a bit quiet at first, but I think she realized that I like feedback so she started providing more feedback as the session went on. She was very kind and her office was warm and welcoming…

As a Latino man, I had many biases against therapy… I realized there is no shame in getting help. I am stronger thanks to therapy.

I felt really comfortable and Marilyn made me feel like everything I was saying was valid. Instead of just agreeing she provided me with resources since Day 1 that have really helped me.

Today was my first day going to see her and she was great. She was very open and helpful to what I was saying. She really pointed out things I didn’t realize and was able to help me understand where I need help on certain things!

I feel bad for not leaving a rating sooner. Ernestina is a true angel. I’ve been seeing her for about 8 months and I couldn’t possibly be happier. Well I mean I could be, that’s why I’m still seeing her, but you know what I mean.
