Introduction

Hello, my name is Wilmarie Vega-Matos, LCSW, and I'm glad you've found your way here. I work with adolescents, adults, and families who are navigating stress, anxiety, major life transitions, grief, or moments of emotional overwhelm. Many of my clients are managing significant responsibilities while trying to take care of themselves, and therapy becomes a space where they don't have to carry everything alone. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally sensitive. I firmly believe that everyone has strengths—even when they can't feel them—and our work together focuses on helping you reconnect with your voice, your values, and the parts of yourself that deserve peace and emotional security. We can utilize CBT, ACT, mindfulness, or grounding strategies depending on your needs, but most importantly, we move at your own pace. You don't need to have everything figured out to start therapy. If you're ready to feel supported, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life, it would be an honor to walk alongside you on that journey. Hola, mi nombre es Wilmarie Vega-Matos, LCSW, y me alegra que hayas llegado hasta aquí. Trabajo con adolescentes, adultos y familias que están navegando por estrés, ansiedad, transiciones importantes, duelo o momentos de desbordamiento emocional. Muchos de mis clientes están manejando grandes responsabilidades mientras intentan cuidarse a sí mismos, y la terapia se convierte en un espacio donde no necesitan cargar con todo solos. Mi enfoque es cálido, colaborativo y culturalmente sensible. Creo firmemente que cada persona tiene fortalezas —aun cuando no logra sentirlas— y nuestro trabajo juntos se centra en ayudarte a reconectar con tu voz, tus valores y las partes de ti que merecen paz y seguridad emocional. Podemos utilizar CBT, ACT, mindfulness o estrategias de grounding según tus necesidades, pero lo más importante es que avanzamos a tu propio ritmo. No necesitas tenerlo todo resuelto para comenzar terapia. Si estás listo(a) para sentirte acompañado(a), comprendido(a) y empoderado(a) para hacer cambios significativos en tu vida, será un honor caminar contigo en ese proceso.
