Our Specialties

Trauma, Somatics, EMDR & Brainspotting

Your body remembers what your mind has tried to forget. We provide trauma focused care that honors your resilience and doesn’t rush your process. Using EMDR, Brainspotting and somatic strategies, we help you safely reprocess painful memories and build a future that feels lighter.

LGBTQIA+ Affirming Care

We offer a supportive, affirming space where your gender and sexuality are welcomed without question. All clinicians have training in and are committed to LGBTQIA+ justice. Whether you’re navigating identity, relationships, or the impacts of oppression, you’ll be met with care and respect.

Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy

Obsessive thoughts? Trouble focusing? Sensory Overwhelm? You’re not lazy, maybe you’re neurodivergent. Drawing on neurodiversity‑affirming practices, we help you leverage your unique brain to live with clarity and calm.

Burnout & Compassion Fatigue

You care deeply, maybe a little too much. Burnout & Compassion Fatigue can creep in quietly until it feels like you're running on fumes. We help you reconnect with your purpose, rebuild boundaries, and recover a sense of balance without guilt.

Anxiety & Depression

Overwhelmed? Numb? Stuck in your head? Whether it looks like constant overthinking or not being able to get out of bed, we meet you where you are. Through compassionate, evidence-based therapy, we’ll help you shift from survival mode to something that feels more like peace.

Mindful & Compassion-Focused Practice

You don’t have to earn rest or prove your worth. Using mindful self-compassion practices grounded in both psychology and lived experience, we’ll help you quiet your inner critic, soften shame, and develop a more caring relationship with yourself, just as you are.

An equitable, inclusive space: We honor your identity and lived experience, making therapy a place of belonging.

Meet the Owner

Sabrina Basquez, LCSW – Founder & Director of Compassionate Voice Counseling

At Compassionate Voice Counseling, our mission is to build a kind and sustainable therapy practice—one where both clinicians and clients can thrive. As the founder and director, I created this space to support therapists in showing up as their fullest selves so they, in turn, can offer meaningful, present-centered care to our clients.

My background as a therapist, supervisor, and former burned-out professional informs how I lead this practice. I’ve seen how helping professionals and neurodivergent adults can feel depleted by the very work that once inspired them. That’s why I center the well-being of our clinicians through systems that prioritize sustainable caseloads, collaborative support, and clinical integrity.

Compassionate Voice Counseling is not just a therapy practice, it’s a place where people who give so much of themselves can come to heal, recalibrate, and be genuinely seen. Whether you’re a client seeking care or a clinician looking for a nurturing place to grow, you’re welcome here.
