Dr. Lopez, LCSW-R

I value my Latina Grit, a cultural trait. Grit is a positive, non-cognitive trait based on a person’s perseverance of effort combined with passion to meet a goal (a powerful motivation to achieve an objective). That is personal success. Remembering Success comes from failure and pain only making the journey that much valuable.

~WE ARE HIDDEN GEMS~

~Anonymous “Empowered” Client

“I love therapy, I have learned so much about myself and am grateful for Dr. Lopez.  She is open and comfortable to discuss anything I bring up, even topics that are taboo like sex, intimacy, or vulnerability.  This is empowering.

"From my first session we connected.  She understood me, and my cultural experiences.  She also challenged me to see other views.  Stepping out of my comfort zone is something I needed and was helpful.”

~Anonymous “Memorable” Client

“Dr. Lopez is direct and transparent, while providing a supportive space for growth.  You know what to expect from day one.  I took a break from therapy to only return much later years later.  She remembered me and my story.  That feels different.”
