Dr. Daniela Salazar , PhD (Colombia)

 I love listening to people and walking with them through their journey of life by giving them useful strategies to overcome whatever obstacle they might run into. As a clinical psychologist I work with my clients to transform their difficulties into meaningful and valuable experiences. 
 
I was born in Colombia, raised in the US. I have worked in school settings as a school counselor and a special needs specialist. Also, I have worked in private practice settings for several years. I have experience in a wide range of psychological issues. However, I have a particular interest in working with couples, children and mood disorders.
