Modern Bloom Therapy

Hi, I’m Gloria M. Lares, LCSW. I know reaching out for help takes courage, and I want you to know you don’t have to face things alone. Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive space where you can slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. My approach is collaborative, trauma‑informed, and deeply compassionate. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), I believe healing happens when you feel truly heard, understood, and respected. We’ll work at your pace, exploring the experiences and patterns that have shaped your life while building tools that support emotional regulation, clarity, and confidence. I integrate evidence‑based approaches including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma‑Focused CBT, Solution‑Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Somatic Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Each session is tailored to your unique needs, with attention to how your brain and body respond to stress, overwhelm, and past experiences. Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, or low self‑worth, I’m here to help you rediscover your strength, reconnect with your inner resilience, and create meaningful change. As a bilingual clinician (English/Spanish), I value providing culturally responsive care that honors your identity, history, and lived experiences. Healing is possible — and together, we can take the next step toward it.
