Compassion Meets Accountability

My style is warm, honest, and gently challenging. I believe therapy is a partnership where we blend compassion with accountability. I don't just listen; I partner with you to challenge unhelpful narratives and discover what truly matters to you. As a culturally responsive therapist, I understand that your mental health is shaped by your community, your history, and your identity. Together, we will create a path to more groundedness and authenticity.

Don’t wait for the ‘perfect moment’ to ask for support. You deserve to live a happy and healthy life, and you don’t have to build it alone.

Miranda Ordoñez, APCC

"its so hard to find a therapist who is queerfriendly AND brown. l usually, I have to explain everything but the therapist at Shakti, she just gets it. didn't have to translate my feelings or explain why my family is the way they are lol. Finally feel confident being myself. Especially after I had to hide who I was for so many years. Sometimes I still hide but at least in therapy I’m me."
