Valerie M. Rivera, LCSW-S, Coach & Mentor
Valerie is a licensed clinical social worker and private practice owner celebrating six years in business this April. As the founder of Inner Solace Therapy, she specializes in trauma and couples work while also coaching and mentoring therapists who are starting or growing their own private practices. Her passion for coaching and guiding other therapists grew from seeing how many clinicians feel overwhelmed, undervalued, and unsupported while building their careers. She believes strong therapists are supported therapists and is committed to creating spaces where connection, collaboration, and leadership can grow within the RGV.
