Hi, I’m Desiree — a Marriage and Family Therapist (MA-MFT) based in Las Vegas, Nevada, and the founder of Summerlin Wellness Collective. I’m also a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-500), Certified Breathwork Facilitator, Gestalt Therapy practitioner, Gottman Method-trained couples therapist, and Usui Reiki Master. My approach combines traditional psychotherapy with body-based, energetic, and relational healing techniques.

I specialize in trauma therapy, anxiety treatment, relationship counseling, somatic therapy, and holistic mental health. I support individuals, couples, teens, and families who are ready to heal from the inside out. Many of my clients are emotionally sensitive, high-functioning adults or parents who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck — despite doing “all the right things.”

I use a whole-person approach rooted in Gestalt Therapy, somatic awareness, breathwork, and nervous system regulation, with the option for equine-assisted therapy in a natural, grounded setting. For couples, I integrate tools from the Gottman Method to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and deepen intimacy.

As a mother of four and a trauma survivor myself, I understand what it means to carry deep pain while still showing up for others. My practice is built for those who are cycle-breakers, caretakers, and spiritual seekers — people longing to feel more connected to their bodies, their relationships, and their purpose.

At Summerlin Wellness Collective, you’ll find compassionate, integrative therapy that honors your story and empowers your healing. Whether you’re looking for trauma-informed therapy in Las Vegas, somatic-based counseling, or support for your relationship or nervous system, I’m here to help you come home to yourself.
