Miss Karina Ventura

Licensed Psychologist

“As a woman, mother, and psychotherapist with 10 years of experience, I am dedicated to helping adolescents and adults navigate life’s challenges with compassion and care. I offer multilingual and culturally sensitive relational psychotherapy, affirming neurodiversity and trauma informed.”

About Me

I offer a compassionate space where adolescents and adults can explore life’s complexities. My relational approach focuses on building a trusting connection, helping you feel truly seen and understood. We welcome neurodiversity and work with a trauma-informed lens, creating a safe environment to process experiences. Sessions are culturally sensitive and can be conducted in multiple languages, ensuring your unique background is fully honoured. This helps you navigate challenges with greater ease.

Approach

Healing here looks practical and relational, moving between attentive listening and concrete steps that fit your daily life. In Santiago or online, I match pacing to school and work rhythms and offer sessions in English or Spanish so language never slows the work. I combine assessment-informed conversation, collaborative planning, trauma-aware processing, and practical strategies for attention differences and autistic profiles, with brief between-session experiments and gentle check-ins. This approach tends to help adolescents and adults facing transitions or attention and developmental questions who want steady, respectful support.
