I am a radical Black, queer, abolitionist, eco-feminist, freedom worker, therapist and coach devoted to uplifting Black, Indigenous, Asian, Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latina/Chicana, Women of Color and LGBTQ+ kin.
Hey, I'm Briana! I help global women break free from burnout, self-doubt, low self-esteem, depression, perfectionism, anxiety, impostor syndrome, people pleasing, generational trauma, racial, political, and cultural stress. Through our work, you'll release habits and patterns that sabotage your joy, unlearn oppressive beliefs you've been taught about everything from body image to your role as a woman, and reclaim yourself from capitalism, supremacy culture, and manufactured urgency. You'll tap into your own power and claim your own liberation. As revolutionary woman Assata Shakur reminds us: "we have nothing to lose but our chains."

Being first-generation LatinX, I can understand and relate to issues around culture, race, discrimination and bias, assimilation and acculturation.
My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable and safe talking about anything. I think my clients do tend to feel that sense of comfort and support. I'm "real" and speak with thoughtfulness, kindness, and candor.

I have experience working in community mental health, where I have worked with clients of Latinx descent as well as of other cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.
I utilize an integrative approach, depending on client needs. However, I enjoy using person centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, Gestalt, mindfulness and structural therapy. I like to meet clients where they are at, as they are the experts of their life. Additionally, I enjoy supporting individuals on their journey towards parenthood.

I bring special sensitivity to ethnic differences with my Hispanic heritage and am extremely familiar with military culture and 12 step recovery programs.

With respectful, skilled guidance, you can successfully shift thoughts, neural pathways, behavior and emotions, putting you (rather than the anxiety) in the forefront of your personal and professional lives. I will bring compassion, respect and unique insight into our work together. Selected as one of the Three Best Rated Psychologists in San Diego in 2022, ,2023, 2024 and 2025 through patient reviews and Woman of Distinction in 2023, I bring 25 years of experience to our therapeutic process and your transformation.

Are you seeking an anxiety therapist? I am currently accepting new clients. Is anxiety restricting you from the relationships you want to have and feeling awkward and uncomfortable in social situations? Do you find yourself overthinking about everything that could go wrong and doubting yourself? Experiencing anxiety can feel frustrating and exhausting often leading to being self-critical and being hard on yourself. If any of this sounds like what you're going through, know that you're not alone! It's common to feel hesitant about seeking help, but recognizing that you need support is a courageous first step.

At times I know life can be daunting and overwhelming with life stressors, the complexity that comes with navigating relationships, or perhaps the feeling that something is holding you back from reaching your full potential; yet part of you wants to feel better and move forward. I have specific experience working with individuals, couples, and families who struggle mental health issues and trauma. In my practice, I am affirming of people of all backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientations. Everyone is unique; in my work, I strive to identify the specific factors that foster growth and healing for my clients.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not yourself lately? Have you been this way for a while?
You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep pretending everything’s fine when it isn’t. Maybe you’re weighed down by worry, whether it’s about your relationships, lack of purpose, finances, body image, or sleep. You might find yourself comparing your life to others, wondering why they seem to have it all together while you’re struggling just to get through the day.
If you’re tired of feeling tired, of carrying the weight alone, and feeling like you're stuck—it’s okay to ask for support. It's hard to go at it alone...you don't have to!

Welcome! As a Bilingual (Spanish & English), Queer Bisexual Mexican-American, & Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, I understand that most of us want to feel seen, heard, & accepted. Although outward validation & affirmation helps, the deep work & healing lies in being able to validate & affirm ourselves, all of our identities, & lived experiences. In our lives as we continue evolving & changing as individuals, we reach points where the coping strategies we have previously used, & that have helped us survive at one point, may no longer serve us, & they can actually interfere with our ability to connect to ourselves & others.
