I am a neuroqueer Latina therapist with European ancestry who immigrated to Canada over a decade ago. I firmly believe that therapy must take context and systems of oppression into account in order to be helpful. If this is your first time seeking therapy, I may be a particularly good fit for you as I am passionate about translating knowledge and teaching skills in a client-centered manner. I offer therapy in English, French, Spanish, and any combination thereof (e.g. spanglish). If you often feel like other people were given an instruction manual for life that you didn’t receive, I might be able to help you bridge the gap.

Wellness is a complex combination of mental and physical health. You may be feeling vulnerable and needing to discuss intimate subjects that may be perceived as too shameful or traumatic to share with others. As an RN and therapist, I know that how our bodies work (or don’t) has a huge impact on our well-being Whether your mental health is impacting your physical health or vice versa, it can be difficult to find a therapist who understands both. Whether you are experiencing sexual challenges, perinatal mood shifts or difficulty moving through a trauma, I am here to believe you in your experience and support you in moving forward.

Using a depth-psychodynamic approach, I help you get to the root of the issues in your life to make lasting positive changes. A depth (or Jungian) perspective looks into the unconscious forces at play while a psychodynamic perspective allows us to see how your past is playing out in your present relationships. I have an eye for spotting the patterns that are limiting your growth then I use a compassionate yet challenging approach and gentle confrontation to get you unstuck and out of shame, confusion, and depression. Above all, my focus is to empower and reconnect you with your inner truth and authentic confidence.

Deep inside of you is the awareness of what you need to heal. I help facilitate and unearth that inner wisdom with individuals, couples, and groups. Together, we'll practice tuning into your own unique embodied awareness. From there, we can translate that increased clarity into tangible action that aligns with your greatest, most authentic wellbeing. Our bodies exist within larger systems — many of which can disconnect us from ourselves and each other. We'll look together at the messages we've internalized from these systems in order to unearth the ones that are no longer helpful.

As a Certified Psychotherapist, Counsellor and Supervisor, I believe every person has a right to share their story. I provide a safe environment where people can process and gain the insights and awareness they are seeking. I deal with the root issue(s), not just the symptoms of the problems that are presented. Many have no where to turn and feel trapped in their issues, whether shame, fear, loneliness, anger, or hurt. These feelings are often deep-rooted and have not been recognized, acknowledged and shared with someone non-judgmental. As we share our life stories with someone objective we are able to find the healing we need.

Imagine feeling it in your bones that change is possible. How you relate to yourself, others, and life - can change. I want to work with people who are courageous and fearful and unsure. When we have limiting stories of ourselves it can be helpful to have someone else, a professional, hear us - see us- and want to show another way. I will not look away from your shadow, and I do not fear trauma or big emotions. You are so much more than what you've done, your body, and your worst thoughts.
