About Nancy Ortiz, LCSW | Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Welcome, my name is Nancy Ortiz, LCSW and I am a Queer Femme Xicanx Bilingual-Bicultural Psychotherapist based in Orange County CA. I provide somatic, culture centered psychotherapy and sex therapy while centering Trans, Queer, Afro-Indigenous Latinx, Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and Immigrant (1st/2nd/3rd generation) communities. I offer telehealth therapy and limited in person sessions in my Orange County office. You can schedule a free 30 minute phone consultation with me using this link https://nancy-ortiz.clientsecure.me  

Somatic Psychotherapy for Trauma & Stress Recovery for Individuals and Relationships (Monogamous, Cis-Het, Queer, Poly/CNM)

Somatic Psychotherapy aims to address patterns of depressive, chronic stress, anxiety, and trauma responses from childhood, present day difficulties, or both. I am trained in EMDR, TRM, IFS and incorporate your unique wellness and resiliency to our work based on your cultural beliefs and practices. 

Sex Therapy for Individuals and Relationships (Monogamous, Cis-Het, Queer, Poly/CNM)

Sex therapy aims to address the emotional and psychological aspects of sexual health and wellness. Some common areas of interest are: Queer & Trans sexual health, sexuality exploration, gender exploration, gender transitioning care, low libido, painful sex, out of control sexual behaviors aka “sex addiction,” kink & BDSM practices/interest, polyamorous & ethical non-monogamous relationships, recovery from infidelity, sexual harm/abuse/trauma, exploring sex(uality) & disabilities/chronic illness, sex & spirituality/faith, and exploring sex work.

Equity & Access Statement I recognize the need for cultural centered therapy services and I center QTBIPOC, Afro & Indigenous Latinx, Disabled, Immigrant 1st/2nd/3rd generation, and Spanish Speaking communities while remaining open to serving all persons.

Approaches to Therapy

I approach therapy from an integrative approach mostly humanistic and somatic while incorporating psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral as needed. Decolonizing approaches include Indigenous Ways of Knowledge like Chicano Psychology, anarchafeminist, anarchopunk, multicultural psychotherapy, liberation psychology and Mujerista approaches. I support individual and collective healing from trauma towards recovery by integrating each person’s spiritual, artistic, and creative practices as a source of continued restoration and healing. I encourage people to reconnect to their natural healing abilities and cultural practices.
