Delia Acosta-Perez, LCSW

Delia Acosta-Perez, LCSW, works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. She supports caregivers dealing with the strain of caring for others and helps clients who are feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or stuck. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Delia aims to make each session a straightforward place to talk and find practical next steps.

Her background includes child welfare work and roles in outpatient mental health clinics. She has carried out crisis evaluations and comprehensive mental health assessments. That experience means she has seen many ways stress and trauma show up in daily life.

Delia has worked in school settings, bringing experience with communication challenges and attachment concerns among young people and their families. She also helps people coping with divorce, separation, guilt, and forgiveness. Her approach focuses on clear, doable strategies rather than only talk.

With three years of professional practice as a licensed clinical social worker, Delia draws on hands-on experience to guide sessions. She meets people where they are and helps them set small goals for change. The work tends to be collaborative and practical, with attention to the realities of caring for others.

Before starting, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How evidence-based approaches fit into online care

Many clients benefit from two common evidence-based approaches: trauma-informed care and brief coping skills work. Trauma-informed care means the therapist pays attention to how past harm shows up now and moves at a pace the client can manage; it can help with post-traumatic stress, grief, and feelings of shame. Brief coping skills work focuses on practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage daily stress, such as grounding exercises and structured problem solving.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Delia will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and life situation. Together they review what helps, try methods, and adjust as needed rather than sticking to one plan from the start.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and avoid travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when a full session feels too much, or for scheduling around caregiving responsibilities. Ask about current session options when you sign up so you can pick what fits your routine.
