Queer, Latina, bilingual (Spanish-speaking) therapist, welcoming LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. Are you looking for a mental health service where all the different parts of you are explored?

Treatment is never one size fits all, I believe in a broad, person-centered therapeutic approach.

Individual therapy with me always begins by learning how to check-in with our nervous system to ensure we are creating a neutral and/or safe space that's required to begin to take a deeper look at what's underneath some of the challenging situations you may be responding to. Therapy is an insight-oriented process where we'll improve our ability to self-regulate and connect with others. I work from a polyvagal informed approach which is also known as the science of safety and connection. It's through this approach that we will begin to understand how your nervous system responds to cues of safety and danger.
