Theresa Maria Ruiz-Lopez

Motto:A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.
Theresa Maria Ruiz-Lopez, Ph.D., is a compassionate mental health advocate, educator, and writer based in San Diego, California. With over two decades of experience, Theresa specializes in supporting individuals navigating life transitions, fostering resilience in the face of adversity, and helping those who identify as Empaths or Highly Sensitive Individuals. Her expertise spans across mindfulness practices, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and somatic experiencing, and she holds certifications in both trauma recovery and integrative nutrition.
In 2023, Theresa launched her podcast "Empowerment Journeys," which quickly became a favorite among listeners seeking guidance on personal growth and emotional well-being. She also contributes regularly to a local wellness center, where she conducts workshops that combine therapeutic techniques with holistic approaches to health. Theresa's private practice is located in the heart of downtown San Diego, offering a serene space for clients to explore their paths toward healing and self-discovery.
Theresa co-authored the book "Embracing Your Strength: A Guide for Empaths Thriving in a Chaotic World," published earlier this year, and is currently working on her next project, "The Resilience Blueprint: Building Emotional Stability After Life's Storms." Her insights have been highlighted in publications like Mindful Magazine, The San Diego Union-Tribune, and Psychology Today, reflecting her commitment to spreading awareness about mental health and personal empowerment.
