About Silvia Diaz, LCSW

Hola, hola! I believe it is an honor to accompany clients in their journey towards growth. Whether you are facing ongoing obstacles, struggling to manage your mood, or going through a life transition such as prepping to welcome a child or starting a new relationship, I would love to work together to help foster in you the necessary skills to feel confident in your journey and tackle any barriers towards your overall wellness!

As a second-generation Latina, I know firsthand the challenges that mixed-status immigrant families face. I grew up listening to Los Bukis, Bronco, and learned English until I started kindergarten.  Being a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I want to use my privilege to support our community especially in a time like today! When I accompany my clients, I am client-centered and use a trauma-informed, solution focused approach.  I also apply CBT and DBT techniques into therapy depending on where the client is at and their needs.

When I decided to become a therapist, I envisioned having the privilege of walking with people on their journey to reach their goals. I want people to feel seen, respected, and heard. I look forward to supporting you in your journey, reaching your goals, and living a fulfilled life.
