Our Founder
Querencia Counseling & Coaching was founded by our lead therapist and life coach, Joanna Della-Peruta, LPC. Joanna is a Spanish and English speaking therapist who's aspired to create a space where people of all backgrounds can easily access therapy.
With training in EMDR, CBT, and DBT, Joanna takes a trauma-informed and eclectic approach to therapy. By collaboratively supporting individuals towards reaching their goals, she strives to provide a safe, nurturing, and non-judgmental environment where therapy is catered to the uniqueness of each individual. Joanna is also life-coach certified to support those looking for a more solution-focused approach to change.
As an attempt to expand accessibility to care, Joanna supervises three interns who can provide low-cost services to English and Mandarin speaking individuals.
