Do you want to discover not only how to help yourself for the here and now but build a foundation that can sustain you for a future? The goal is to help you learn how to help yourself by providing you tools and coping skills while processing the impact that life and others may have had on you. Do you struggle with feeling empty, unfulfilled, and lost? Maybe you are using substances to mask or cope with the emotional pain. Maybe shame, guilt, or grief is holding you back from feeling like yourself. Maybe life just feels too difficult or not worth it?

It is Fucking exhausting, when you're constantly trying to shrink yourself to fit other people's expectations Perhaps you find yourself screaming into the void, feeling lost and overwhelmed by the pressures of existing in this late-stage capitalist hellscape. Maybe you are transitioning into adulthood, searching for acceptance & understanding. You might be starting a new relationship or exploring your sense of self & identity. For years you've felt frustrated & confused by a world that expects you to be someone you are not. But now, you are ready to take up space.

Clear, Resolve, Transform. I help clients discover and resolve subconscious causes for emotionaI and behavioral difficulties. The Subconscious controls emotions, desires, memory, habits, thoughts, dreams, and automatic responses. One may consciously understand the value of eliminating problematic emotions, thoughts or behaviors but unless the Subconscious Mind is reached, enduring change is unlikely. I address the underlying subconscious blocks to living a clear and free life. I have effectively treated sexual abuse, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, phobias, addictions and more. Issues are cleared, clients report being able to function with more energy and clarity. Relationships thrive and lives are transformed.

To the misunderstood, the misdiagnosed, and the overly diagnosed; to those who feel a sense of stuckness; to those experiencing deep, overwhelming thoughts and emotions; to those who wonder if there might be a different way or if anyone could ever understand and accept them; to those who struggle to feel or understand their own behaviors, thoughts, and emotions; to those who believe they may never be good enough; to those who believe they may be irreparably broken or damaged: ​ I am called to meet you with curiosity, creativity, and understanding.

We all have struggles and things that we want to be different. Families, couples, or individuals who are looking for a change can find meaningful progress in therapy. I work with people who may struggle with school, relationships, neurodivergence, and life's anxieties. Often we explore what steps you want to take in your therapeutic journey. This has been a passion of mine for the last decade!

Do you want to find a safe space to get clarity and be able to hear your inner voice again? Would you like to be understood and not judged, and simply have a space where you can be YOU in this process? Well, then, welcome for having taken the first step and being here. I am a Latina bilingual therapist who is passionate about mental health. It would be my honor to join you on this journey as you find your path again.

Navigating a path that is different from what your parents, friends, or even what you had originally planned should feel warm, celebratory, and freeing, but perhaps you’ve experienced inner turmoil, persecution, and pain instead. The pain of your identities, unique experience, and even your very existence being dismissed and invalidated. Entering into relationships that others don’t understand or approve of can cause tension in the relationship itself. It feels as though there’s a magnifying glass on your ‘non -traditional’ way of life and you’ve become hyper-aware of how you show up in and are experienced by those around you.

Mending your heart and soul, healing fully and thriving in the present is possible. I invite you to share your story and ideals with me. In time, we can safely lean into past pains, transform the suffering and restore your spirited heart. You can be exactly who you are - our meetings will be sacred space. You don't have to be enthusiastic about the work, we can tailor each session to meet you where you are. We are ALL resilient and can Face Everything And Recover! I have being engaged in recovery from addiction work for over 20 years. I believe in the connection we need to heal.

Is REM's "It's The End Of The World As We Know It" playing as your daily soundtrack? We get it....life is FUCKING scary right now. Things feel unpredictable, chaotic, and overwhelming and it's easy to despair. You may be thinking “If we needed to talk about feelings, they would be called ‘talkings'- Nick Miler. Keeping all of this bottled up inside and dealing with it on your own isn't serving you though. There's no medal for "doing it all on your own." Whether you're struggling with your identity, sexuality, racial tension, or social justice, your concerns are valid, and you deserve to be HEARD. Therapy offers that space.

I offer expressive and emotionally based therapies to children (ages 6 and older) a warm and nurturing environment which provides a safe space to do any healing they might need to do to move forward, to feel better about who they are, or share what might have happened in their lives that makes their heart ache. I help teens and young adults navigate the turbulence of hormones, and school work, friendships and home life, college and relationships, and all the other activities and significant events happening, while trying to discover who they are and what makes them feel most alive.

I am not able to accept new clients at this time. I have over 35 years of experience as a mental health clinician. I am trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy - which means that I believe that who we are as adults is shaped by the past relationships we had in our families. The difficulties we have in our work, relationships and within ourselves, can be managed better and overcome, when we have greater understanding of how these earlier experiences have shaped us. Change happens as this understanding opens up new possibilities for what we want for ourselves, and how we experience ourselves and others.

I specialize in working with people that have attachment difficulties stemming from childhood. If you’re unfamiliar with what that looks like, see if any of the following apply to you: difficulty feeling secure in relationships; not feeling like you can trust others or yourself; difficulty receiving praise or accepting criticism. These are just a few issues that can be related to attachment. When a caregiver didn’t meet your needs or met them unpredictably, it can have lasting effects throughout your life. The work of therapy then becomes to create a sense of safety and trust within yourself first, that you can then apply to others.

Do you struggle with feeling like you don't belong? Do you wish you could wake up and love every single thing about yourself? Maybe you've been through something that resulted in an installed belief of "I'm not good enough". I'm here to tell you that you are good enough. I spent a lot of my life feeling like I needed to hide or apologize for who I am. People and institutions told me that I didn't fit their mold so that meant that I just didn't matter. Screw that! We are beautiful and unique humans and are worthy of all the good things! I finally learned that I never have to apologize for being me! Neither do you!

Are you suffering? Ready for something new? Life just not going to plan? I see you. As someone who has also struggled, I deeply believe that healing and peace are possible for you. Change is confusing, uncomfortable, and quite messy. It can leave you feeling lost and overwhelmed. Know that you don’t need to proceed alone. I collaborate with people just like you to let go of their pain and become more authentically themselves. I’ve got a big ol’ toolbox of tools and strategies to help you build the life you crave while providing a haven for you to navigate through this crazy thing called Life.

There's a part of you, deep down, that believes that you will never be enough. Smart enough, attractive enough, successful enough, likable enough, good enough. I want to tell that fearful part of you that I recognize it's trying to protect you from getting hurt. So you never put yourself out there or take a risk that could be life-changing. I know how hard it is to take a leap of faith, because stability and monotony is safe. If you don't try to go after what you want, you can't fail. And failing is really, really scary.

Have you reached adulthood but don’t have the sense of belonging or fulfillment you thought was supposed to come with it? Something so basic has been missing for so long you feel stuck and embarrassed to talk about it. You are not alone. 1 in 10 men will experience anxiety or depression but less than half will seek treatment. Life can be a hell of a thing but as men the expectation is to just deal with it. Maybe you are just entering into the adult world and realize you will be making decisions that will forever alter the course of your life and want a no pressure place to talk about it.

Therapy is a place to dream, scream and put it all back together again. You will arrive, again, to a place where you know that you are worthy and you do not have to hide. There is a future where you are welcome without wearing a mask. There are people that will show up for you. The real you. You deserve to find them.
