Welcome,
My name is Dariela Vasquez.
I am a first-generation Dominican Somatic Psychotherapist, Coach , educator, and researcher.
I offer a grounded, holistic approach to therapy and coaching, deeply rooted in ancestral wisdom and integrated with mental health practices.
As a somatic psychotherapist with over ten years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and personal insight. Growing up as a first-generation Dominican, I understand the complexities of navigating multiple cultural identities.
I am passionate about helping women of color rebuild self-trust and reconnect with their inner wisdom after experiences of hurt, loss, and trauma. My work is rooted in the belief that healing is a journey of coming home to yourself—honoring your story, reclaiming your voice, and creating a life aligned with your truth. With a blend of compassionate guidance and body-centered practices, I hold space for clients to navigate grief, release generational burdens, and rediscover their strength, all while cultivating a sense of grounded presence and self-compassion.
My approach blends deep empathy with a gentle yet powerful invitation to reconnect with your inner wisdom. Through somatic practices, we'll gently release what no longer serves you, and with each step, we'll honor the wisdom of your body, mind, and spirit. Whether you're looking to heal from past wounds, navigate the complexities of your family history, or reconnect with your spiritual self, my care is here to help you reclaim your power, grow, heal & thrive.
Cultivate deep body connection
Body & Heart Centered
Living an empowered life starts with listening to the body.
In sessions I guide you through somatic experiencing as we witness little you. As we hold space for them, hold their hand and comfort them.
We feel together in real time, gathering all the different parts of you.
We gather around the campfire, and listen to their stories.
We honor you, and celebrate your return home.
You become the home you always wanted to have.
If you're ready to embark on a path of healing and self-empowerment, let's connect. I'm here to support you every step of the way. I’m here to hold ceremony for you, and hold all of you.
Schedule a consultation or to learn more about how the space I hold can help you heal and live your life.
Together, we can journey towards a more fulfilled and balanced you.
I am rooted in ancestral wisdom and work from an anti-oppression analysis. This means that when we come together, we honor your whole story and we gather as one.
I look forward to holding space with and for you.
