Therapists in San Diego, CA
As a Latina (she/ ella) attachment based therapist, I hold space for those navigating the complexity of identity, belonging, and connection. My approach is relational and collaborative — grounded in early relationships, parts work, and the mind-body connection. I believe therapy is a space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that have longed to be seen and understood.

I know the pain of fear, terror, loss, and overwhelm, that we encounter in the wilderness spaces of our lives. I also know where to find a drink of water amongst the desert landscapes. It is a path I have traveled and studied with the intent to help others gently navigate healing; transitioning into more lush landscapes of releasing and renewing. I will offer guidance using a mixture of science, attachment, and mysticism. My desire is to offer a safe space that welcomes all nervous systems, personal experiences and holds a range of spiritual life from exploration to deconstruction. Together we will co-create a path toward healing.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I bring an open, non-judgmental, and empathetic approach to therapy. I am trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I started my career as an HIV test counselor, supporting people through what can be a scary and difficult time. I later earned my master's in social work from San Diego State University, where my area of study was community mental health. Serving the community and connecting with individuals has been a driving force in my career. I know it is really difficult to be human. My values of compassion and empathy drive me to do this work.

She's bright and capable — so why has everything suddenly gotten so hard? I work with teen girls and young women with ADHD and anxiety, at the transitions where the structure that used to hold them falls away: starting high school, leaving for college, or the wide-open years after. The assignment's late even when she knew it cold, the basics feel impossibly heavy, and she's been masking so well that no one sees her struggling — underneath is the sense that she's carrying it all alone. Sometimes it's anxiety, sometimes an ADHD (or quietly autistic) brain that never got the right support. You don't need a diagnosis to begin.

My ideal clients are often the ones who appear to have it all together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. Many come to therapy struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, life transitions, relationship patterns, or past experiences that continue to impact the present. Together, we move beyond simply understanding why patterns exist and begin creating meaningful change. Using approaches like EMDR, narrative therapy, and evidence-based practices, I help clients reconnect with themselves, build self-compassion, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and aligned.

I believe that the ways we cope, relate to others, and respond to difficult experiences often make sense within the context of what we have been through. Sometimes, however, those patterns can begin to leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. Therapy can provide a space to slow down, better understand what is happening beneath the surface, and begin creating new ways of coping and connecting. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, behavioral concerns, substance use, emotional distress, and life transitions.
