Co-Founder & Chief Operating Officer
Irma Seilicovich, LMFT
Irma has been at the forefront of helping children and families for nearly three decades. Born and raised in Argentina, Irma made a commitment early on to devote her life to helping others. In Buenos Aires, she earned her master’s degree in clinical psychology. Soon after, she came to the United States, earned a second master’s degree in the same discipline, and became a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. While working together at an area agency, Irma and her colleague, Hugo, recognized a critical need for bilingual, culturally sensitive mental health services for children and families in the San Fernando Valley. This realization marked the beginning for The Village Family Services. As its co-founder and Chief Operating Officer, Irma directs a staff of more than 100 professionals across three sites. A staunch advocate for trauma-informed care, Irma is a member of the International Society Trauma Stress Studies (ISTSS) and the National Child Traumatic Stress Network.
