OUR TEAM
RACQUEL RIVERO, LPC, RPT, ACS
Clinical Director
Bilingual Counselor
I specialize in working with children (ages 3+), adolescents, and teens. My focus is on helping individuals build upon their strengths and gain insight into the areas of their lives that they desire to change. I believe that the therapeutic relationship and providing a safe environment are the building blocks that help me guide others in their personal growth and goal attainment. I strive to provide a caring, motivating, and supportive environment where clients can feel safe to explore any issues they bring to counseling.
I believe that helping individuals develop the skills necessary for change is an important part of counseling. I gear my therapeutic work to the needs and concerns of the client, utilizing cognitive behavioral approaches, play therapy, expressive arts therapy, solution focused therapy, and an overall eclectic approach.
I have experience working as a School Counselor, allowing me to provide insight into any school-related needs for parents and their children.

My aim is to provide a safe, caring environment where clients feel comfortable to explore their feelings and confront the challenges they are facing. I aspire to help my clients develop effective coping skills, as well as the resilience to face whatever obstacles life may bring along.
