I am also trained in psychedelics-assisted psychotherapy. This broad range of skills allows me to design the most individualized approach for each client’s unique needs.

I am Gabriela, and I am here to help you create the life you want. The thought of facing who you are, alone, with the weight of your uncertainties, fears or unspoken truths, can be daunting. Many of us, may hit a wall – making it difficult to understand ourselves or the path ahead. Not knowing can be part of growth because clarity can come from facing the unknown. It takes courage, and I am here to walk with you.
I believe that we all have inner resources such as resilience and self compassion to help us heal and grow. However, trauma, grief, or self limiting beliefs can block us from access to these resources.

Hi, I am Andressa. Being a trauma survivor has impacted my life in many obvious and mysterious ways. Numbing out and dissociating have helped me bear the trauma, but burying it and pretending it didn’t exist never really worked. It was only when I started looking at it and inviting my demons to come forward, to speak up and scream out their rage, that what I saw behind it was pain. Eventually, I saw that they were not demons after all, but my inner child. It has taken me deep work to turn down the numbing, the denial, the self-blaming and shaming, to put all that into my forgiving journey, which starts with self-forgiveness.

Hispanic and Latino Counsellors
What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?
An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.
How can I recognise a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
