Hello! I'm Demi Tuuk Velarde, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma processing and helping people navigate anxiety, depression, and dissociation. I work with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan—from teenagers through elders—creating a safe space to process difficult experiences and build meaningful connections. My approach draws on several evidence-based methods, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Whether you're working through past trauma, managing anxiety or depression, or strengthening relationships, I'm here to meet you where you are. I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions and accept insurances including Aetna, Cigna Healthcare, UnitedHealthcare, Oscar Health, UMR, and Optum. I'm currently accepting new clients and would be honored to support your healing journey.
