About Raquel

Raquel Aspuru is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with five years of clinical experience. She offers straightforward, down-to-earth therapy for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship or intimacy concerns, and substance-related struggles. Sessions are available in English and Spanish.

Raquel uses practical conversation and active listening to help clients make changes that matter day to day. She draws on client-centered techniques to prioritize each person's goals and perspectives. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.

She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help people manage intense feelings and stay present during difficult moments. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she supports clients working toward behavior changes like reducing substance use or improving sleep. Solution-Focused Therapy helps when clients want short-term, goal-oriented work for a specific problem.

Raquel helps with a wide range of concerns beyond the core list, including anger, self-esteem, parenting strain, career stress, grief, caregiving burden, body image, and ADHD-related struggles. She also addresses issues related to aging, blended family dynamics, attachment, abandonment, and coping with disasters.

Her style is direct and respectful. She talks through practical steps and actions clients can try between sessions. To begin, readers are asked to follow the site's booking flow to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

BHow sessions work

How Raquel uses practical approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client's concerns so goals come from the person in the room. It helps when someone wants their priorities and experience to guide what happens in sessions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete exercises to test new thoughts and behaviors, and can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and some relationship patterns.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices can support work on stress, grief, and managing strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Raquel will talk with each person about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. Clients and therapist decide together which tools to use and how quickly to move from skills work to deeper conversation.

The site describes session booking and subscriptions, but specific online formats were not listed in the profile. Confirm current session options before scheduling so you know how sessions are conducted. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time that interferes with work or caregiving responsibilities.
