Therapy in Las Vegas (Central/Professional Districts), NV | Counselor Dama Perez
Las Vegas (Central/Professional Districts), NV carries an energy of reinvention, but inside your relationship you may feel stuck in place. You’ve tried to show up softer, stronger, more understanding, yet something is still missing. I help first-generation women of color unravel emotional patterns that leave them feeling unseen or small. Therapy becomes the space where your truth is met with dignity and possibility.
How it works
Step 1
A thorough intake session where we explore your relationship history, cultural backgrounds, and current struggles so we can understand the deeper patterns behind the disconnection.
Step 2
Emotionally focused sessions to help you with clarity, begin repairing trust, and rebuild emotional safety.
Step 3
Ongoing, guided sessions with personalized homework, where we break unhelpful cycles, strengthen connection, and practice healthier ways of relating so your relationship feels more like a true partnership.

Couples Therapy
LEARN MORELove without safety becomes survival. In therapy, we slow down enough to understand why staying silent felt necessary, why defensiveness took over, and how to begin again with emotional honesty. This is not about choosing sides, it’s about choosing to grow together.
Individual Therapy
LEARN MOREIf you're tired of feeling like you care too much or hurt too deeply, you’re not broken, you’re likely responding to emotional environments that were never designed to meet your depth. Individual relationship counseling is where I help you reclaim your emotional sensitivity as power, not weakness, and reshape your life and relationships around authenticity, not fear.
Anxiety Therapy
LEARN MOREYour anxiety is not just a list of symptoms, it has a story. Therapy meets you where you are and focuses on honoring that story, not dismissing it. Together, we rework your internal responses, build boundaries, quiet the pressure, and create new emotional pathways that feel safe, rooted, and true to who you are becoming.
Premarital Counseling
LEARN MOREYou are two whole people choosing to build something new. Premarital counseling creates space to honor your identities, your families, your beliefs, and your needs, without sacrificing who you are for love. Together we explore how to navigate differences with respect, how to build intimacy with awareness, and how to walk into marriage with your truth intact and your connection stronger than ever.
Grief Counseling
LEARN MORESome of the hardest grief lives in the quiet moments when everyone else seems fine. It’s in those moments that therapy holds space for your truth with compassion. Together, we explore how to carry memory without being weighed down by it, and how to slowly let hope coexist with your heartbreak.
Immigration Evaluations
LEARN MOREThis is not just a clinical process, it’s a collaboration. I work alongside your legal team to ensure the evaluation fits the specific needs of your case. Whether you're applying for asylum, VAWA, U-visa, hardship waiver, or cancellation of removal, I ensure each report is timely, thorough, trauma-informed, and written with your liberation in mind.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use insurance for therapy?
I am currently an out-of-network provider. However, I can provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Many PPO plans offer partial reimbursement checks with your provider to confirm your benefits.
Do you offer a sliding scale?
Yes! I offer two sliding scale spots for clients with financial need. If cost is a concern, please reach out. I'm happy to discuss options during your consultation.
What does the therapy process look like?
We start with an intake session to explore your relationship history, communication patterns, and goals. From there, we’ll meet regularly to uncover deeper emotional patterns, build new tools for connection, and work toward the relationship you want to create. Therapy is always tailored to your unique story and pace.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule a session?
Life happens! I ask for at least 48 hours’ notice for cancellations or reschedules. Sessions canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice may be subject to the full session fee. No-shows or missed appointments without prior notice will be charged the full session rate, as that time is reserved specifically for you.
How does virtual therapy work?
Sessions are held through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You’ll receive a private link before each session. All you need is a quiet and confidential space, a reliable internet connection, and a device with a camera and microphone.
What if I don’t feel like we’re a good fit?
It’s completely normal to wonder if therapy is the right match for you. Building trust and feeling comfortable with your therapist is essential for meaningful growth. If at any point you feel unsure about our connection or approach, please let me know. We can talk openly about it and decide together whether to adjust our work or explore other options. Your comfort and progress are my top priorities, and I’m here to support you every step of the way whether that means continuing together or helping you find the best path forward.
