Therapy doesn’t have to be your “dirty little secret.”
I offer a warm, honest space where you can breathe, speak freely, and start to untangle what’s been weighing you down. My sessions go deep — sometimes heavy, sometimes hilarious — but always real. I bring honesty, curiosity, and a bit of quirk into the room — and if a little humor or personal reflection helps something shift, we’ll use it.
I trust that things can shift, that clarity comes, and that even the heaviest moments can open — when we give ourselves permission to begin.
Clients often come to me navigating trauma, loss, identity questions, or relational pain. Together, we look at what’s underneath the surface and begin moving toward clarity, relief, and reconnection — with yourself and with life.
I’m currently completing a sex therapy certification through Modern Sex Therapy Institutes — an AASECT-approved program based in Florida — to deepen my work with intimacy, sexual trauma, and relationship dynamics.
This work is personal to me. I know how healing it can be to finally say things out loud that you’ve carried alone for too long — and to be met with care instead of judgment. Even in the darkest places, I help clients reconnect with hope, direction, and the belief that things can change. I’ll meet you where you are — but I won’t leave you there.

Testimonials
Your guidance was instrumental in the meaningful progress I made last year. It’s rare to encounter someone whose kindness and support feel so genuine — and it truly made all the difference.
There’s something truly special about Presita’s presence. From the very first session, she created a space that felt safe, honest, and free of judgment. She has this incredible way of being warm and lighthearted without ever shying away from the hard truths. It’s not performative or clinical; it’s real and genuine. You feel seen and met where you are. She doesn’t just listen—she challenges, supports, and gently steers you back to yourself. Her use of hypnotherapy added a completely new depth to the process, but it’s really her intuition and humanity that make the difference. She just gets it. She gets you. Therapy with Presita isn’t about ‘fixing’ you. It’s about coming home to yourself, with someone who actually knows how to walk that path with you. If you’re lucky enough to land in her care, you’ll understand exactly what I mean.
Looking back, I can see just how much has changed since I began therapy with Presita. I wasn’t in a good place when I started, and I genuinely don’t think I would’ve reached where I am today without her. She helped me open my mind to new ways of thinking and brought clarity to so many things I had been struggling with. Her support has been empowering, and I’m so grateful for the growth I’ve experienced through our sessions.
Working with Presita helped me connect with my emotions in a way I couldn’t have managed on my own. She’s incredibly supportive and brings some truly effective tools to the table. Under her guidance i’ve grown so much in my ability to understand and handle emotions and my sense of self-worth has deepened too.
