About Dominique Balderas
I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood, respected, and comfortable being yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive, with a balance of compassion, humor, honesty, and direct communication. I don’t believe therapy should be about simply talking through problems week after week. I want to help you better understand yourself, recognize patterns, develop practical skills, and make meaningful changes in your life.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Substance Abuse Counselor (SAC) who works with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, substance use concerns, relationship difficulties, stress, and life transitions.
I draw from evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and exposure-based interventions. I tailor treatment to your individual needs, values, and goals.
My professional experience and personal journey in long-term recovery also inform my compassionate, nonjudgmental approach to substance use and recovery. Whether you’re navigating a difficult transition, struggling with recurring patterns, or simply feeling stuck, we’ll work together to identify what matters most to you and create a realistic path forward.
