Beverly Torruella, MA, QMHP
Beverly is committed to the principle of primum non nocere "first, do no harm" within her clinical practice. While completing a doctorate in Clinical Psychology at The Chicago School, she serves as a therapy extern at Capital Center for Psychotherapy and Wellness. Beverly brings warmth, authenticity, and cultural awareness into the therapeutic space, fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for growth and healing.
She works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, overthinking, burnout, identity exploration, confidence concerns, emotional and mood stress, and major life transitions. Beverly is especially passionate about supporting military service members, veterans, high-functioning individuals, members of LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities, and individuals impacted by psychological trauma.
Her therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed skills, mindfulness-based approaches, existential therapy, and strengths-based interventions. She believes in tailoring treatment to each client's unique experiences, values, and goals, while helping them develop greater self-awareness, stronger connections, and improved social well-being.
My Philosophy
Beverly believes therapy should feel safe, affirming, honest, and transformative. Her approach is grounded in compassion, genuine human connection, and evidence-based care. She helps clients build confidence, strengthen emotional regulation, and navigate life's challenges with greater clarity and resilience. Together, she and her clients work toward meaningful and holistic care.
Outside of therapy, Beverly enjoys the arts, travel, meditation, and exploring creative experiences that broaden perspective and deepen connection throughout the community.
