About Me

Dr. Aaron Desuacido, PsyD (He/Him) Psy#36438 is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Supervisor at the Center For Embodiment Medicine. He brings a compassionate, individualized approach to therapy, with a strong focus on helping clients recognize their intrinsic value. Dr. Desuacido has extensive experience working with trauma survivors and transitional age youth—individuals navigating the critical developmental period from adolescence to early adulthood.



With a deep understanding that beginning therapy can feel intimidating, Dr. Desuacido prioritizes creating a safe, empathetic space where clients feel genuinely seen and supported. His clinical work is grounded in the belief that healing begins through a reparative relational experience—one marked by trust, connection, and emotional attunement.



Dr. Desuacido does not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, he tailors each therapeutic relationship to the client’s unique needs and goals, drawing from a flexible range of modalities. He also has a personal and professional interest in mindfulness practices, which inform his holistic approach to mental wellness.
