Terra Dusa
About
Terra Dusa offers Holistic Mental Health Counseling through Telehealth, a secure online video call service to offer care directly at home while still seeing your provider face to face.
As a Counselor, Dr. Soto has a person-centered approach, accounting for individual differences and needs in their patients. Counseling is a tool used to create space for someone to be seen and heard, and in doing so encourages therapeutic introspection and self-referential awareness, which leads towards healing. It is beneficial for anyone seeking support. Needing to be seen and heard does not mean one has a pathology, simply a need to speak. It can provide tools for how to approach situations and difficult events, as well as help one moving forward. It’s there to help people live their fullest lives through better understanding of the self, bring awareness to the mind’s processes, and provide a plan to fall back on when difficult times come again. Dr. Soto brings presence, intention, and care into each of their sessions to facilitate the process of reaching your goals.
I enjoy helping others finding their "Aha" moment. When they are able to unite the intelectual, emotional, and physical aspects of themselves into a greater understaning of what they are expereinceing and use it to move forward in a more affective way.

How did you get started in this business?
I decided to launch Terra Dusa in the anticipation of my first child. The intention was to create a business that I loved in which I could be a fully present parent and create stability for myself and newborn. As a single parent, this balance is extremely important to me. And I know, that for others, the balance between work, loved ones, and play is also of high importance. Choosing the platform that I have, allows this balance not only for me but for my patients as well.
Being able to receive services at home or wherever is most convenient, eliminates the need for more time commuting or being away. You can use your time more effectively without the expense of taking time away from those you love most. You can take care of yourself by seeking the services you need, and by doing so, be more present to your life and those around you. Healing not only happens to the individual, but also to every degree of connection that interacts with them. Bringing healing to yourself, provides healthier interactions which bring healing to others. A lesson I had to go through and learn myself.
My mission is to help guide you to a greater understanding of the self and a larger objective view of community, environment, and evolution of all types, so that you can see what is yours, what is not, and what will help you move forward in a way that brings transformation that best serves you.
