Feeling anxious all the time is such a crippling feeling and can feel like there is no escaping it. Just when one anxious thought starts to go away, another one shows up and takes its place. It can feel like an endless cycle of racing thoughts, worry, and fear about anything and everything. It’s hard to know when the anxiety will be over especially living in an anxiety-inducing world that is constantly changing which in turn leads to more anxiety. If this sounds like you, you're not alone!

As a kid, I dreamed of becoming a “Feelings Doctor.” I didn’t know the term for it yet, but I knew I wanted to help people heal from the inside out. I started college at 16 as a pre-med student, but I quickly realized that the clinical world wasn’t where I felt most at home. What truly called to me was connecting with people, understanding their stories, and helping them heal from the inside out. Growing up in one of Colombia’s poorest regions taught me resilience, community, and the power of emotional support. Today, I use those lessons to walk alongside others as they face life’s challenges and reconnect with their inner strength.

If you're always feeling anxious, it can be really hard to cope with it. It feels like the worry never stops – as soon as one thought fades, another one takes its place. It’s like being stuck in a loop of fear and stress about everything. And with the world always changing, it can make the anxiety feel even worse. If this sounds like what you're going through, you’re not alone.

I see therapy as a space where I can help individuals understand who they are so that they can gain freedom in how they walk through the world. Life’s ebbs and flows can evoke painful feelings and, in my experience, understanding those feelings alongside another person can bring about relief and lifelong change.

I believe that the changes that occur through therapy are linked to the relationship between client and therapist and the client's development of insight. People come to therapy feeling unsure and insecure, repeating the same frustrating patterns again and again without the outcomes they hope for. We will work together to help you move out of unhealthy cycles that are no longer serving you. I have trained in and utilize multiple approaches, but primarily draw from psychodynamic therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy.
