Working with a therapist can be an act of liberation and a vital part of your path toward healing relationships and building the life you want. As a therapist I work primarily from a Queer Feminist perspective with a focus on strategies to sustain balance and mental health within ongoing systems of oppression. I specialize in working with queer and LGBT identified Latinx communities, multiracial adults and individuals impacted by family based or attachment traumas. I offer EMDR as a primary tool for treatment as well as EFT, meditation and relational somatic psychotherapy techniques with all clients
Therapists in this group practice specialize in work with attachment-based traumas, healing from experiences of pregnancy and post-partum depression, C-PTSD and experiences of sexual, gender-based and racial trauma. Non-monogamous couples therapy, work with partners to better understand trauma recovery and family treatment are also available.
I am a mixed- Latinx identified clinician with 17 years of experience in clinical and community-based mental health practice. I utilize anti-racist/anti-oppressive frameworks in my collaborative work with clients. Interested in working with us? Check out our website to learn more about clinicians.

Amelia is everything you'd want in a therapist; they are smart, they are trauma informed, and they truly care. I have sent many referrals to them over the years, and I always know that my clients are in the best of hands in their care.
