I am a Latine, bilingual, queer woman and psychotherapist based in Los Angeles. Currently accepting new clients, I work with youth of all ages, adults, and couples/relationships. I weave together somatic and mindfulness practices rooted in Indigenous and Buddhist traditions, to guide you in reconnecting with your deepest truths while navigating change. I believe people in all bodies deserve healing, and that you deserve therapy that centers your cultures.
My therapeutic process is collaborative and curious. My work is informed by Health at Every Size and Intuitive Eating. I utilze EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Parts Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness to offer a blend of talk and somatic-based therapy.
No es fácil pedir ayuda y el estigma de buscar apoyo para nuestra salud mental a veces nos impide obtener la tranquilidad que merecemos. Como terapeuta, quiero acompañarte y juntes realizar el cambio que tú deseas. Ofrezco terapia en Inglés, Español y Spanglish. Si gustas saber más sobre mi trabajo programa tu consulta gratis.
