People who reach out to me are often navigating addiction, substance use, habits, or patterns of adaptive attachment that once helped them cope but now feel exhausting, limiting, or misaligned with their values. They may be a student, professional, or adult under long term pressure, experiencing anxiety, burnout, mood shifts, ADHD, or emotional regulation challenges. Often they feel stuck in a single story about themselves, framed as failure or lack of willpower. They want understanding, relief, and practical change without shame, judgment, or being pushed faster than they are ready for.

Let’s be honest, scrolling for a therapist can feel like therapist Tinder. You’re swiping through endless headshots, trying to figure out who seems both competent and easy to talk to. It’s weird, I know, I’ve been there too.
If you’ve made it this far, you’re probably someone who works hard, cares deeply, and sometimes wonders if you’re doing this “being human” thing right. I help people navigate relationships, self-doubt, and the pressure to keep it together. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years in a demanding career trying to seem calm while struggling inside. I get it.

No matter where you are in your journey, you are welcome here. You might be here because despite being thoughtful and self-aware, you’ve become your own toughest critic - caught in pattens that keep showing up in your relationships (with others, your body, or food). Something in you is ready for change. You’re craving a different way of being: one with more ease, self-understanding, and a sense of safety within yourself. Maybe you’re exhausted by the constant self-criticism and you’re ready to feel more connected to you body, your experience and what truly matters to you.

Seeking support is a courageous step. Therapy can be challenging and vulnerable, and it can also be deeply meaningful and restorative. I work with individuals around anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and significant life transitions such as grief, identity shifts, or career changes. I offer a space where you can feel met with care, curiosity, and respect; where you don’t have to navigate things alone. I have spent time in the client’s chair, both during my training and during difficult seasons of my life. These experiences shape my belief in the power of an attuned therapeutic relationship.

I am a Venezuelan-Canadian queer woman of colour with lived experience of migration and I offer services in Spanish and English.

Creativity, curiosity and compassionate care are at the core of my practice. When journeying through difficult experiences, art becomes a powerful friend for the courageous path of healing and transformation.
