I was so hesitant about my session because I wasn't very comfortable with my first therapist....so I switched to Lucia after reading her profile....let me just say!!!! She made me wish that I had started therapy YEARSSSS AGO!!! I really am grateful for her! I prayed that God would lead me to a good therapist and He lead me to a GREAT ONE!!!

She's honestly the best!! She's so great at what she does and by far has helped me reach break through points critical in my life. I cannot describe this but as a latina she has this comforting persona that reaches into me. I recommend her 110% to all my family and friends. She has been a God send to me in the personal!

I've only had a few sessions with Lucia, but I absolutely love her. She's down to earth, makes me feel heard and feels like she genuinely cares. I'm looking forward to our future sessions and receiving her expertise in Trauma. Betterhelp did a great job pairing us together.
