Welcome to your Mental Health Journey

ImprinTherapy and Consultation

Free consultation

Black
US-Therapist

My name is Halima Brown Manzanera. I am a US-Licensed therapist and Life Coach. I live between Spain and the USA.

I specialize in depression, anxiety, life transitions, ADHD, and identity concerns.

I currently offer life coaching services for English speakers who are trying to navigate the complexities of being or becoming an expat.

I also offer consulting services for aspiring therapists who are just beginning their therapist journey. I am also available to work with organizations in a consulting capacity.

Services

  • I’m a CBT- and DBT-informed therapist who takes a solution-focused, here-and-now approach to support meaningful change.

    • CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) helps us identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that influence how you feel and act.

    • DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) involves skill building for emotional regulation, mindfulness, distress tolerance, and improving relationships

    • A solution-focused approach means we concentrate on your strengths and what’s working, rather than staying stuck in the problem.

    • I work in the here and now, helping you deal with current challenges, build insight, and taking practical steps forward — rather than overly focusing on the past.

    Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you, using evidence-based tools to help you feel better, think clearer, and move toward your goals.

  • As a coach, I work with individuals navigating life transitions, identity exploration, and career or personal growth — with a deep understanding of the lived realities of being queer, Black, and/or an English-speaking expat.

    Whether you’re living abroad and feeling culturally unanchored, navigating microaggressions in unfamiliar systems, or simply trying to find joy and purpose in a new chapter — coaching can help you reconnect to yourself and move forward with clarity.

    I assist clients by connecting where they are to where they want to be. This involves exploring their goals and barriers that are preventing them from achieving those goals.

    I specialize in working with:

    • Queer folks seeking identity-affirming guidance

    • Black clients looking for safe, culturally aware support

    • English-speaking expats adjusting to new environments, isolation, or uncertainty

    • People at the intersection of multiple identities, navigating complex systems and inner growth

  • For Organizations

    I partner with organizations to support mental health awareness, resilience, and well-being in the workplace. My goal is to create psychologically safe spaces where individuals and teams can thrive.

    Services include:

    • Mental health workshops & trainings

    • Consultation on employee wellness programs

    • Burnout prevention and stress management strategies

    • Supporting leadership on mental health-informed practices

    • Crisis support or debriefing after difficult events

    Whether you're a business, school, or nonprofit, I tailor mental health consultation to meet your team’s unique needs.

    For Pre-Licensed Therapists

    I provide clinical supervision and consultation to associate therapists working toward licensure.

    As a CBT- and DBT-informed, solution-focused clinician, I offer:

    • Weekly or biweekly supervision (individual or group)

    • Support with clinical case formulation, ethics, and interventions

    • Guidance in developing your voice, confidence, and clinical judgment

    • A warm, collaborative, and growth-oriented environment

    If you're seeking a supervisor who brings both structure and support, I’d love to connect.

  • My practice is 100% virtual. I use multiple secure HIPPA- compliant videoconferencing platforms for sessions.

  • My hours of operation are 6am until 2pm eastern standard time.

    This is due to the two different time zone that I occupy.

    I do have some flexibility and can make space for clients outside of those times on a case by case basis.

  • The biggest difference I would say is the the focus on time

    THERAPY is often past or present focused while COACHING is future focused

    THERAPY involves healing and or processing past pains, and/or traumas, as well as managing mental health concerns

    COACHING assists with building skills to work on clarifying and putting action toward future goals

    THERAPY helps you heal COACHING helps you grow
