Join me in a safe, nurturing space where you'll be supported by nature, art supplies, a caring heart, and two adorable pups! Here, we'll care for the parts of you longing for love, using mindfulness, mind-body tools, art practices, and advanced neuroscience tools.
If you're seeking a compassionate guide to heal from childhood trauma, you're in the right place. As a LatinX therapist with 14+ years of experience, I've seen the transformative power of healing deep wounds. Maybe you've done inner work but still struggle with painful unwanted patterns and feel self-critical, anxious, and uncertain. You're not alone. Generational trauma can leave a legacy of self-doubt and unworthiness. But by exploring your trauma story, identity, and culture, we can rewire negative patterns, re-build your self-trust, and unlock your true essence. Embracing your authentic self is a journey worth taking!

Providing Somatic Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, Ketamine-Assisted Therapy, and Psychedelic Integration. I specialize in supporting people with symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

Throughout our lives, we all have experienced feelings of depression, anxiety, and anger. These emotions leave you feeling insecure, shameful, lonely, unworthy and stuck in unhealthy patterns of behavior. Trauma can have negative emotional and physical effects and can lead to family/relationship issues. I specialize in solution-focused brief therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness and CBT. These approaches allow me to work with the client to decrease symptoms of anxiety and depression and other health/behavioral issues.
