Sincere Practice
Helen Garcia, LCSW • Therapy
Trauma-informed, parts-aware therapy
Therapy for creative women who want to expand — without forcing themselves.
This work starts with nervous-system safety and moves at a consent-based pace. We don’t push parts that aren’t ready — we build steadiness, clarity, and real-life practice.

Safety → clarity → practice
Less bracing. Clearer yes/no. Boundaries that don’t require a crash afterward.
Nervous system first
We start where your body is — and build a steadier baseline.
Parts-aware
We get curious about protective patterns with care, not shame.
Real-life practice
Small experiments you can repeat — not perform.

Questions
FAQ (tap to expand)
How do I know if you’re a fit?+
A fit call is the simplest way. We’ll clarify your goals and what support fits best. No pressure — honest routing.
Do you assign homework?+
If it’s helpful, we’ll choose one small practice. The goal is repeatable, doable, and supportive — not overwhelming.
What if I’m not “doing that bad”?+
You don’t need a crisis. Many clients come because they’re high-functioning and tired of bracing or shrinking.
