MARJORY VAZQUEZ, PHD
WELCOME!
I am Dr. Vazquez, a licensed psychologist and the founder of The Sana House. I grew up in Southern California (I.E.) but am currently located in the Bay Area. I am a first generation college student of Mexican and Salvadorian background. My areas of interest include trauma, diversity/ multiculturalism, bilingual therapy and supervision and mentorship. I have worked with adults and some children in hospitals, domestic violence shelters, and community centers across different states including Georgia, Missouri, Colorado, and California. I am fluent in Spanish and particularly passionate about working with BIPOC communities and women of color who have experienced trauma. Feel free to reach out if you want to connect!
