About

Yahaira Toruno, LCPC, CRC, CADC Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor • Certified Rehabilitation Counselor • Energy Psychology Practitioner With over 20 years of experience in mental health, substance use treatment, and vocational rehabilitation, I bring a compassionate, whole-person approach to healing. As a bilingual clinician fluent in Spanish, French, and English, I serve diverse communities with cultural sensitivity, deep empathy, and evidence-based care. My work blends traditional psychotherapy with integrative practices such as Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), mindfulness, breathwork, and somatic awareness to help clients release limiting patterns, reduce stress, and reconnect with their inner strength. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating trauma, chronic stress, life transitions, substance use recovery, and the unique challenges faced by people with disabilities. Over the course of my career, I have led clinical teams, supervised graduate-level counselors, and helped create innovative programs serving high-need communities. I believe that true healing happens when mind, body, and spirit are addressed together, and I am passionate about empowering clients to access their own resilience, clarity, and purpose. Whether we are working one-on-one, in a group, or within a community setting, my intention is always to create a safe, nurturing space where transformation is possible.
