Cultural Identities

About Nadia Alvarez, M.S., LMFT

Clients describe my therapy sessions as a safe space for reflection and growth, even when life feels messy. My ideal clients are adults facing anxiety, relationship issues, depression, or life transitions. They want to understand and manage their emotions, communicate more effectively, and build stronger, more fulfilling relationships. I specialize in working with couples, especially intercultural ones or those in transition, aiming to repair bonds and foster trust.

As a Puerto Rican and Mexican woman of color, I bring a social justice and anti-oppression lens to therapy, prioritizing a culturally humble approach. We’ll explore your individual identities, core values, and how they connect within your relationship.

I’m certified in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), helping partners understand hidden emotions, develop secure bonds, and communicate effectively. I also use Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to heal trauma, along with mindfulness techniques to o help you stay present and connected during our sessions.

My clients value my attuned listening, non-judgmental approach, compassion, and genuineness. You don’t have to go through this alone. Together, we can navigate your challenges and foster growth. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation today and let’s start your journey toward healing and connection.
