Raquel Huerta
Hey. My name is Raquel Huerta. Born in NYC, raised and trained as a psychologist in Israel. I love working with people to help them help themselves in their growth process. Becoming who we are is our most sacred goal in life, and it often times poses the most challenges. Let start on the road of healing, growth and self discovery. I work with all populations, but I have found that issues relating to parenting, couples therapy, self esteem and occupational satisfaction, are where we reach the most success. If you choose to lean on Biblical inspiration for therapy and growth, my knowledge is focused on the Old Testament, but would love to learn from you how your faith inspires you, and we can use that to further catapult your growth. I have worked with clergy in the past and growth using the Bible is uniquely wonderful. If we are teamed up, I'd be honored to get to know you, but I do understand that I will never know you as well as you know yourself, so I always invite you to correct and tweak what I say so that it uniquely fits who YOU are. Shall we?
