I’m Juanita Viera (she/her), a trauma-informed, expressive arts therapist offering care for deep feelers, cycle-breakers, and healers. I offer couples counseling as well as individual therapy.

I believe that healing happens at the intersection of creativity, somatic wisdom, and radical compassion.

As a Puerto Rican creative arts therapist and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) provider, I bring cultural humility, spiritual depth, and playful curiosity into the therapy room. In addition to art therapy, my approach weaves Internal Family Systems (IFS), attachment repair, ancestral healing, somatic therapy, and altered state integration, including but not limited to guided ketamine therapy sessions.

My clients often find me after surviving trauma, burnout, or complex family dynamics. Many are healers themselves—therapists, teachers, artists—yearning for a space to be held for once.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or emotionally starved in your relationships—my work is especially for you.

You might be here because:

• You are burnt out in your career or your activism, and you are ready to come home to yourself.

• You feel drained from giving too much in your relationships, yet unsure how to ask for what you need.

• You’re grieving a breakup that shattered your sense of self, maybe after a relationship with a narcissistic or avoidant partner.

• You’re stuck in loops of people-pleasing, over-functioning, or caretaking—and you’re ready to break the cycle.

• You’re a highly sensitive person or creative spirit navigating grief, anxiety, depression, or PTSD.

• You’re carrying trauma from childhood abuse and feel ready to confront and heal old wounds.

• You’re doing deep healing work already—but you crave a therapist who understands your lived identities, your spiritual journey, or your psychedelic experiences.

Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you. It’s about remembering who you were before the world told you to shrink.

We start with deep listening—to your body, your inner parts, and your deepest knowing. Whether through talk, art-making, somatic exploration, or ketamine therapy, I help you gently meet the roots of your pain with curiosity and compassion.

Together, we might:

• Rewrite internalized messages from childhood or past relationships.

• Process trauma somatically and creatively.

• Explore relationship patterns through an attachment and parts-based lens.

• Cultivate real tools for emotional regulation and healthy boundary-setting.

• Reconnect to your sense of power, authenticity, and joy.

• Honor both your wounds and your wisdom.

My work resonates most with:

• LGBTQ+ and BIPOC clients

• Artists, empaths, and activists

• Therapists, teachers, and service workers

• Professionals experiencing burnout

• Survivors of narcissistic abuse, enmeshment, or parentification

• Folks struggling with PTSD or C-PTSD

• Couples or individuals exploring polyamory or other forms of ethical non-monogamy

• Folks experiencing a spiritual awakening or seeking altered state healing and integration

• Anyone looking to connect with a queer, femme, Latinx therapist

If you’re seeking a space where both grief and laughter can live, where healing can be slow, sacred, and real—you might be in the right place.

Healing doesn’t have to be lonely. Let’s walk together.
