Aceptando nuevos clientes/Taking new clients - - - Hi! I'm a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) currently working at Find Your Shine Therapy in Tempe AZ. My experience includes working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, identity and self-esteem issues, life transitions and adjustments, and interpersonal issues. In an effort to increase access to quality bilingual counseling services, I am excited to provide therapy both in English and Spanish.

I understand that finding the right counselor can be a daunting task and I hope to help you in that process. I am dedicated to creating a safe, caring space where you feel heard and supported. We can work together to explore and identify emotional barriers that keep you from feeling and living your best, develop more helpful patterns of thoughts and behavior, improve mood, and reduce overall anxiety. My hope is that our work together will bring you insights and opportunities for new ways of relating with yourself and others.

I believe that counseling is about empowering us to make the positive changes in our lives that we believe we need to live a fulfilling and happy life. Sometimes we have learned dysfunctional thought processes from the experiences life has provided us. Having a trusted professional to help us sift through our beliefs and thoughts in a non judgmental way can provide us with a different perspective, can enables us to make the changes that we already know we need to make, but have been unable to make happen.

I help women overcome anxiety, shame, and perfectionism to break cycles that leave them feeling stuck and unfulfilled. My clients often struggle with unrealistic expectations that lead to frustration, burn-out, and indecision. They never quite feel “good enough” and are exhausted trying to do it all. If this sounds familiar, you aren’t alone. Many of my clients find themselves stuck in patterns of self-judgement and disconnection that impact their confidence and self-esteem. I enjoy helping clients build new patterns and insights that restore balance and connection to their lives.

Life is more than good and bad decisions. The things you go through may cause you to pose questions such as, “How did I survive situations that others did not?” or “Why do each of my relationships have the same negative outcome?” You may find that although you ponder these questions, the journey to finding the REAL truth is intimidating.
