Professional statement

Julissa has held a Master’s Degree from The Hunter College Silberman School of Social Work since 2011. Her post graduate work focuses on individual, couples and group therapy, all grounded in a trauma informed lens. Her therapeutic trainings encompass Psychodynamic, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), Narrative, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative, and Solution Focused modalities. She is a contributing Author in the Award Winning Latinx in Social Work Volume II.Additionally, she is a Certified Field Instructor (SIFI) and provides clinical supervision to upcoming social workers as an Advisor at Columbia University and to clinicians in private practice as a consultant. She also trains fellow clinicians on the Ketamine assisted psychotherapy treatment modality as part of the leadership team of the Ketamine Training Institute (KTC).

Julissa continues to expand her therapeutic practice by focusing on niche areas and by incorporating novel approaches such as Ketamine assisted psychotherapy, in combination with plant medicine, talk therapy and coaching, to create personally tailored and curated holistic wellness plans for the clients she works with. This holistic care model is what truly lies at the core of Integrate therapies, and is what differentiates her practice from other mental health groups.

The focus of her work is relationships, navigating relational experiences in personal life or business, self empowerment and manifestation, intergenerational trauma, healing from intimate partner violence, life transitions, anxiety, depression and women’s issues, and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
