As a Social Worker & children’s trauma therapist, I stand with our clients & students. I see what hate from their own parents, families & communities does to them.

Join us for an interactive workshop on healing-centered education, culturally responsive practices, and building stronger communities for our youth, hosted by After the Peanut, directed by Dr. Natalie Coleman. Our Founder & CEO, Lorraine "Lorena" Guerrero Neumayer will be one of the panelists.

After the Peanut Foundation believes that before students can fully engage in learning — especially in rigorous and high-demand STEAM subjects — they must first feel safe, seen, supported, and connected. Where Healing Leads was created from that belief.

Join us for a bold and interactive community conversation designed to empower educators, parents, mentors, and community leaders who support youth every day. This dynamic panel experience will explore healing-centered education, culturally responsive practices, emotional safety, and strategies for building stronger, more connected communities that allow young people to thrive academically and emotionally.

Featuring powerful voices in education, mental health, and liberation psychology, this event creates space for honest dialogue, reflection, and action.

Whether you work in schools, lead in the community, parent young people, or simply care about the future of our youth, this experience is for you.

✨ Community Dialogue

Together, we can reimagine what safe, inclusive, and healing spaces look like for the next generation.

In this clip from Herencia Residential & Commercial’s podcast series, “Growing up without water or working toilets,” our founder, Lorraine “Lorena” Guerrero Neumayer, LCSW, CADC, PEL, speaks candidly about growing up in poverty and the realities many families silently navigate every day.

By sharing her story, Lorena highlights how experiences with poverty, instability, and responsibility at a young age continue to shape the way she connects with children and families through compassionate, trauma-informed care.

Thank you again to Ulises Huitron and Herencia Residential & Commercial for creating space for honest conversations that help bring visibility to experiences so many people carry in silence. 💛

Thank you to Ulises Huitron and Herencia Residential & Commercial for creating space for honest conversations about trauma, healing, and resilience in their podcast video, “Childhood Trauma: From Victim to Advocate.”

In this powerful conversation, our founder, Lorraine “Lorena” Guerrero Neumayer, LCSW, CADC, PEL, shares how her own experiences with childhood trauma, family separation, and loss shaped the way she connects with and supports children and families through trauma-informed care.

We are grateful for the opportunity to help amplify conversations about healing and the importance of accessible mental health support in our communities. 💛

Thank you, Ulises Huitron & Herencia Residential & Commercial🫶🏽

“This conversation with Lorena Lorraine Guerrero was powerful.

A lot of people carry pain from childhood without ever talking about it—and hearing how she transformed those experiences into helping others through her therapy practice, “Healing Place,” was honestly inspiring.

Sometimes the people who’ve been through the most become the ones most equipped to help others heal.

A special thank you to Lorena for being willing to openly share such impactful and deeply personal moments from her upbringing. Those conversations aren’t easy to have, and her vulnerability will undoubtedly help others feel seen, understood, and less alone.

Definitely worth watching if you’ve ever struggled, grown through difficult moments, or simply believe in the importance of mental health and community support.

We’re excited to share that Healing Place is now in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and Cigna!

We are committed to making mental health services more accessible for our community, and this is an important step forward for our practice.

And stay tuned! We are currently awaiting approval for YouthCare / Medicaid for Children, something our founder Lorena has been working toward since opening Healing Place.

Self-pay pricing and payment plans are also available!
