Esperanza Rimando

With a deep commitment to holistic healing, Esperanza specializes in Somatics and Dance Movement Therapy, working with clients toward greater self-regulation and resilience through movement.

Esperanza integrates years of experience in talk-based therapy with her passion for movement, creating a therapeutic space where clients can explore their emotions, reconnect with their bodies, and cultivate lasting well-being.

“My approach is grounded in the understanding that the body and mind are deeply interconnected. Through embodied practices, I support clients in cultivating a sense of agency, helping them navigate life’s challenges with greater grace and resilience. Whether working one-on-one or with groups, I tailor each session to the unique needs of my clients, creating a nurturing space where meaningful and lasting transformation can unfold.”
