My name is Arelis Perez, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, founder, and clinical director of Arelis Perez Psychotherapy Services, LLC — a multilingual, virtual group practice serving individuals and families across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia.
As a Latina therapist, I understand firsthand the complexities of navigating identity, family expectations, and immigration experiences. I believe you deserve a space where you feel truly seen and supported without having to translate your experience for your therapist. Healing is possible, and I am here to walk alongside you.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, domestic violence, life transitions, grief, stress, intimacy and relationship issues, and substance use disorders. I also provide psychological evaluations for immigration proceedings, including assessments for asylum seekers and individuals applying for U visas, T visas, and VAWA protections.
My approach is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from cognitive-behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, and person-centered principles. I tailor everything to your unique needs, cultural background, and personal goals.
At Arelis Perez Psychotherapy Services, I have built a team of licensed clinicians who provide affirming, evidence-based care in both English and Spanish. All services are offered virtually — no commute, no waiting room, no barriers. If you are in DC, Maryland, or Virginia and ready to take the next step, I would love to connect with you.
