Yuliana Iniguez, MS, LPC-IT, ATR-P

I’m committed to cultivating an environment of safety and self-discovery through integration of art, healing, and creativity. My passion lies in empowering and advocating for my clients.

I utilize a multifaceted, client-centered counseling approach that is tailored to the client’s specific needs. I work with you and utilize your strengths to achieve your goals and overcome life stressors. I enjoy utilizing a holistic and arts-based approach in my work with clients. I am an advocate for providing a safe space to heal for BIPOC and LGBTQIA2S+ members and Neurodivergent folks and am dedicated to addressing the mental health disparities and needs of these communities by providing a culturally and trauma informed perspective. I work with individuals and couples.

When I’m not working, I’m usually out thrifting, getting a sweet treat, and working on my junk journal. I enjoy watching movies with my husband and cuddling with my fur babies. I have a black lab named Theo, a black cat named Rue, and two gray cats named Miku and Remi.
