About Lizet Benitez, LCSW-S

For the Strong Latina Who’s Tired of Holding It All Together

You’re the go-to person—the one who “has it all figured out.” But inside? The overthinking, the anxiety, the weight of expectations—it’s exhausting. I see you. I am you. As a Latina therapist, I specialize in helping Latinas especially professional Latinas work through anxiety, relationship challenges, and trauma—without having to explain their culture. My approach is warm, direct, and transformative. No fluffy therapy talk—just deep, meaningful work to help you heal, set boundaries, and finally exhale. Therapy in English & Spanish.

Ready to put yourself first? Let’s do this.
