MEET ANABEL
PEREZ-GONZALEZ

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist with nearly two decades of experience working with adults and couples in New York.

My work is relational, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change comes from understanding patterns rather than pushing for quick fixes. As a bicultural, Spanish-speaking therapist, I approach identity, culture, and family systems as central to the work from the very beginning.

Working with me offers a steady, collaborative space to slow down, gain insight, and create change that feels authentic, sustainable, and aligned with your life.

    Individual Therapy

    Individual therapy offers a supportive, client-centred space to explore anxiety, mood concerns, identity, relationships, and life transitions at a pace that feels steady and sustainable.

Cultural Note

I am bicultural and Spanish-speaking, and I work well with clients who hold more than one cultural framework.

This may include people navigating immigration experiences, family expectations, or identity shaped across cultures and languages.

Working with Anabel was a game-changer.

I gained a growing sense of clarity, confidence, and emotional relief — without ever having to over-explain my experiences.”
