Socorro ‘Soco’ Reynoso, LCSW is a licensed psychotherapist and the proud founder of Soco Rey Therapy, a group practice in Inglewood, CA.  She gained a bachelors degree in Psychology at Claremont McKenna College and a masters in Social Welfare at the University of California at Berkeley.  She is of Mexican and Black descent and has been practicing since 2010.

Soco believes that our wounds are our portals to our higher selves. Being the daughter of a Southern Black mother and Mexican-American father comes with a lot of strength and also a lot of pain, namely shame.  The dysfunction in her family life was always apparent to her and she, like many who come from oppressed lineages, believed it was her responsibility to provide everyone she loved with a better life. This led to abandoning her own emotional experiences which resulted in a perpetual longing for a more fulfilled life. She has used this longing to re-connect with her authentic self and now finds purpose in helping others do the same.

Her favorite clients are the big dreamers, who are here to get the most of out of life, and who feel held back. She is fueled by clients who are highly motivated to change, and who are willing to put in the daily work to make the change real.

Soco geeks out on all existential matters and is a supporter of decolonizing our country and its harmful practices. Her healing style is an intuitive one, combining her training in understanding systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, spirituality informed by her knowledge of Catholicism, African-American Non-Denominational Churches, Astrology and her working knowledge of neuroscience, Hoodoo, the body and metaphysics.  She is highly aware that we are upon a shift in consciousness, moving from an emphasis on material possessions to energetic/emotional connections, and knows that those of us feeling the shift require significant support of and reconnection to the body — to allow the mind to process and balance the work required in evolving oneself.

Soco’s passion is guiding individuals into realizing their truth, their selves, and their power.  Mental health issues are simply a result of us not knowing who and what we are.  Anxiety, impulsivity and depression won’t really stand a chance when we do.  She believes we are the cure.
