A DIFFERENT WAY FORWARDPerhaps you’re the person everyone relies on. You keep going, anticipate what others need, and make things work. Yet inside, you may feel anxious, disconnected, or unsure of what you want.
Our work makes space to understand those patterns with curiosity and compassion. Together, we explore how you relate to yourself and others—and what becomes possible when your own needs have room, too.
A collaborative space to explore the emotional and relational patterns that keep you feeling stuck.
Spanish-language psychosocial evaluations for adults navigating immigration proceedings, with a compassionate interview process and careful clinical documentation.
I’m Ruth Trujillo-Pertew, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in St. Petersburg, Florida. I work with women navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and questions of identity and belonging.
My approach is grounded in the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM), with attention to emotions, the body, and the ways early relationships shape our present experience. We work at a pace that allows room for choice and connection.
As an immigrant from El Salvador, I bring personal understanding of the complexity of leaving, adapting, and finding a sense of home.
