Healing and Growth

Healing and growth does not mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives. As a bilingual therapist, I understand the importance of language and culture in the healing process, and I’m here to support you in both English and Spanish. Please use this site to learn more about my services. When you’re ready, feel free to contact me to discuss how I may be able to help you.

Juan Pablo Padilla, owner of PAX Psychotherapy and bilingual therapist specializing in trauma and couples therapy.

Juan Pablo Padilla, LMHC, NCC

OWNER OF PAX PSYCHOTHERAPY

As a bicultural and bilingual therapist fluent in Spanish and English, I am a licensed mental health counselor with expertise in trauma and couples therapy. I work with young adults, adults, and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, and symptoms rooted in trauma or relationship challenges. My approach is grounded in evidence-based therapies, tailored to support clients’ unique paths to healing and growth. My goal is to build a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship where clients feel understood and empowered.

I love to hear and understand people’s stories. I believe we are called to live the best possible life we can. Sometimes, finding the path to hope and healing is hard, but it is not impossible when we are open to new opportunities and possibilities. Every day is a call to continue fighting—never give up! I am grateful for the times when I see healing, growth, and a new understanding of the meaning of life happening in people’s lives.
