Hi! I am here to help you live your truest and best life!

Hi! My name is Geraldine Peña. I am a Spanish Speaking, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) & Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) in the state of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I obtained a Master of Education in Counseling at The Pennsylvania State University in 2017. Since then I have been working with children, teens and their families to help them grow in their attachment and emotional regulation. I have experience and knowledge using the Eco-Systemic Family therapy model and Internal Family System techniques to guide individuals in developing stronger, positive interactional patterns with those around them while exploring different parts of themselves. I am passionate about helping guide teens and adults of minority backgrounds to live a more healed, truthful and peaceful life. Providing you a safe space, in your native language and with someone of similar cultural background, will allow you to feel heard and process any adversities, pain, and trauma you may have experienced. As your therapist, I will support you in living your truth and advocate for positive change in your life. My speciality is working with Latinx people who struggle within their attachment style
