Meet Judi Pasos of New Earth Therapy and Be well & Rise in Coral Gables

Today we’d like to introduce you to Judi Pasos.

Judi, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I am a Transformational Subconscious Psychotherapist… I emigrated from Nicaragua to Miami as a toddler and never really left. I’m a Miami-girl through and through. I hold a BS and MS from the University of Miami. After I became a mother, I began practicing yoga after several doctor referrals to do so due to debilitating lower back injuries, chronic pain, and life-long anxiety. After a year of practicing yoga and going from once a week to a steady daily practice, all of the work I had done through ten years of traditional talk therapy started making sense on my mat.

And so because of my own journey through anxiety and PTSD and what I learned along the way, I believe that psychotherapy in conjunction with accessing the mind-body-spirit connection within individuals and relationships is the key to improving any situation. I have dedicated my career to healing trauma in the Miami community. I worked in community mental health, specifically in the Miami-Dade foster care system healing systemic trauma for several years.

Simultaneously I taught yoga to groups, individuals, and families. I have since married the worlds of psychotherapy and yoga, and this is where my unique perspective and style emerged.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
There were many challenges along the way. Marriage, lack of money, two births, a divorce, and then single motherhood. Amongst all of that I graduated from my master’s program, writing my final papers while breastfeeding a newborn on two hours of sleep, was a stay-at-home mom for a bit, then completed a yoga teacher training, worked part-time making no money to complete my supervision hours while simultaneously teaching yoga.

Eventually, completing the hours, passing the boards and landing a job in community mental health. The job which paid me in experience more than money. Working in the foster care system as a dyadic was one of the most beautiful and arduous positions I could have ever taken on in this field. It brought me to my knees and made me the therapist and mother I am today.

New Earth Therapy and Be well & Rise – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
My passion lies in accessing the mind-body-spirit relationship to help people heal themselves and thus the relationships around them. I’ve developed a holistic spiritually-focused therapy process grounded in neuroscience, sub-conscious energy healing, traditional psychology, and yoga. I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, and achieving divine self-worth through finding the authentic self.

And in finding magnetism that comes with the authentic self-facilitating people to manifest their greatest dreams. I use traditional psychotherapy along with a vast range of tools that include Hypnotherapy, EMDR (eye-movement desensitization reprocessing therapy), yoga, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) dyadic therapy, meditation/mindfulness, & yoga. The creative use of these techniques ensures each individual, relationship, and/or family system gets what they need to heal as a whole.

I am most proud of the process that has grown from my journey. I am so grateful to see people come in during “rock bottom” moments and see those same people manifesting their most wanted dreams and witnessing those dreams come to life. I’m not a therapist that sees you what’s wrong with you. I’m a therapist that sees what right with you, and we work from that place.

Is there something we can do as a city to improve the outlook for businesses like yours?
I don’t think our city lacks therapists. However, I do think our city lacks the creative service I am providing, and there is a population of people that are hungry for it.

I know I was one, which I exactly why I developed this process. Miami is definitely a city where someone could gain a lot of experience as a therapist if they are still growing.
