About Ayleen

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with clarity, confidence, and resilience. I believe that every person carries a unique story, and my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where personal growth and healing can thrive. With a strong foundation in psychoanalytic theory and Christian faith, I blend clinical expertise with compassionate insight to help clients transform their struggles into meaningful progress. My approach emphasizes the importance of understanding one's past to build a purposeful and fulfilling future. Through thoughtful dialogue and guided reflection, I empower individuals to take ownership of their lives and embrace their best selves.

I hold a Master’s degree in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy from Barcelona University in Spain and a Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Rafael Landivar University in Guatemala. These international academic experiences have enriched my perspective, allowing me to understand human behavior, mental health, and therapeutic practices through a diverse and comprehensive lens.

With over 15 years of experience, I have worked with clients across various life stages, from childhood to adulthood, addressing concerns such as life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, and daily stressors. Currently, I focus on working with adults between the ages of 21 and 65. Committed to cultural sensitivity, and fluent in Spanish, I provide therapeutic support to individuals from multicultural backgrounds, ensuring they feel heard and understood.

My areas of specialization include life transitions, adjustment, relationship dynamics, self-esteem, life purpose exploration, spiritual growth, stressor-related disorders, anxiety, and depression. I integrate my background in psychoanalytic theory with life coaching principles, incorporating trauma-informed care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other evidence-based techniques to tailor each session to my clients' unique needs.

I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they navigate life's journey. My commitment is to provide a compassionate, professional, and respectful space where healing and lasting transformation can unfold. Whether you're seeking clarity, support, or a new direction, I am here to help you take the next step toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
