Silvina Duchini, LCSW, CCTP-II

Bilingual Trauma and Somatic Therapist

Silvina is LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive in her approach, considering how the intersection of identities and issues has affected or molded each person. Silvina is Mexican from Argentine ancestors and while she has experienced xenophobia, she holds the most white privilege a Latinx can have.

Silvina has extensive training working with PTSD/ Trauma/ Complex Trauma and Anxiety, and also has experience working with drug/alcohol issues, family discord, chronic illness, grief, and attachment wounds. Silvina’s approach encompasses her training in Brainspotting Psychotherapy/ Somatics, Narrative Therapy, TF-CBT, Mindfulness, and Breathwork. Silvina is fully bilingual in English- Spanish. Folx often seek out working with Silvina after they’ve tried talk therapy for some time and are looking for a deeper emotional/ somatic process.

She is a parent, a 1.5 gen immigrant and multicultural individual, born and raised in Mexico City by Argentinean parents/ ancestors.
