DERON PEREZ, MHC-LP

Healing is a journey that awakens the mind, body, and spirit to your innate nature. As a psychotherapist, certified yoga teacher, and Reiki practitioner, I am here to guide you on this transformative path. I specialize in working with children and adults, ages 6 to 65, using a holistic approach that integrates both Eastern and Western philosophies to support your healing.
I have dedicated my practice to helping individuals navigate complex trauma, grief, and anxiety disorders. By drawing on trauma-informed care, strengths-based and narrative therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and somatic Internal Family Systems (IFS), I empower people to rewrite their life stories and tap into their inner resilience, even in the face of adversity.
As a West Indian immigrant, I bring a culturally sensitive perspective, understanding the social and systemic inequalities that shape people’s lives. I work with clients of all identities to explore how cultural narratives impact their sense of self, fostering a space for growth and healing.
