Introduction

(ENGLISH) My name is Daniela Lopez-Vives and I am the Owner and Mental Health Therapist at Soma Cultura. Thank you for visiting and learning more about my practice! Here are some things you may be wondering about: What led you to become a therapist? I love to be curious with others, and learn about each individuals’ stories and perspectives. It is a privilege to be in that space. What is your professional background? I have worked in academia/research for 10+ years in different health topics and have been in management roles in research and clinical settings. I have been a therapist for 3+ years. Why the name Soma Cultura? Soma = Body and Cultura = Culture I believe culture can reside in our bodies, by what we (and our ancestors) absorb from the world around us; whether its biological, physiological and/or psychological. What is different about the way you approach therapy? I like to consider the whole person in front of me, not just the symptoms they are presenting with; and, try to find what is the true etiology or root cause to what led you here. Some questions I wonder about in session: Have you been exposed to abuse or neglect? Have you experienced intergenerational trauma? Have epigenetics and/or systems of oppression impacted your physical and emotional well-being? Have you been listened to by medical providers and felt heard and seen in your story? What are some modalities you use in therapy? I like to use a combination of evidence-based practices, such as CBT, DBT, MI, mindfulness, parts work, somatic therapy and EMDR. (ESPAÑOL) Mi nombre is Daniela Lopez-Vives y soy la Dueña y Terapeuta de Salud Mental en Soma Cultura. ¡Gracias por visitarnos y por tomarse el tiempo para aprender mas sobre mi cliníca! Aquí comparto algunas cosas sobre mi: ¿Porque decidiste ser una terapeuta de salud mental? Me encanta aprender sobre otras personas, sus historias y perspectivas. Es un privilegio compartir este espacio con mis clientes. ¿Cual es tu historial profesional? He trabajado en academia/investigaciones de salud mas de 10 años. También he trabajado como directora de diferentes proyectos y he sido una directora cliníca de salud mental. He sido una terapeuta de salud mental mas de 3 años. ¿Porque decidiste en el nombre Soma Cultura? Soma = Cuerpo y Cultura = Cultura Yo creo que la cultura vive en nuestros cuerpos; y diferentes experiencias, la biología, y la fisiología impacta como nuestro cuerpos expresan esa cultura. ¿Que te destaca de la forma que tu conduces la terapia? Yo trato de considerar la persona completa en frente de mi. No solamente escucho los síntomas que usted esta experimentando, si no también trato de explorar cual es la raíz o etiología que lo llevo a buscar servicios de terapia. Algunas preguntas que yo tengo durante las sesiones: ¿Ha experimentado abuso o negligencia? ¿Ha experimentado trauma intergeneracional? ¿La epigenética y/o sistemas de opresión han impactado su bienestar fisico y mental? ¿Los proveedores de salud lo han escuchado y han validado su historia? ¿Cuales son las modalidades de tratamiento que usted usa en la terapia? A mi me gusta usar una combinacion de practicas con base empirica, como TCC, TDC, IM, consciencia plena, trabajo de partes, terapia somatica, y DRMO.
