Do you feel successful on the outside but disconnected on the inside? Many people who carry high levels of responsibility, whether in their careers, athletics, or personal lives, find themselves feeling anxious, strained in relationships, or unsure of who they are beyond performance and expectations. Therapy can offer a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin aligning with what truly matters. I work with individuals navigating sports performance, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.
I also work with couples who feel disconnected from themselves or their partners - whether it's anxiety, relationship stress, or questions around intimacy. My approach is thoughtful, collaborative, & trauma-informed. I help clients better understand their inner world and develop skills that support both emotional well-being and sustainable performance.
As a Latina therapist, I bring cultural awareness and lived experience to each session. I integrate evidence-based modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), honoring identity, heritage, and the complexity of each client’s story while supporting growth, promoting resilience, and authentic healing.
