Spanish-Speaking Therapists in Washington, DC
Many people carry the weight of trauma, anxiety, or depression for years, often quietly, putting up a mask to the world that “everything’s fine.” If that feels familiar, know that you’re not alone — and healing is possible. My role is to hold a non-judgmental, empathetic space where you can finally set some of that weight down, sort through it, and move toward the life you want. Hi, I’m Kelsey and I specialize in helping adults (ages 18-60+) who are working through trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, and life transitions. As a therapist, my style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative.

You're in a stressful job environment such as, big law, government work, consulting, etc. but all that is being asked of you at work or at home are overwhelming or now spark self-blame or sadness you can't quite shake. Your mind won't quiet down with looping thoughts, sleepless nights and a creeping sense you're failing while everyone else has it together. You're exhausted from holding it all together, and it's starting to cost you focus, confidence, and joy. You don't need to keep white-knuckling through this and fall into burnout.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, the pressure to succeed, or the weight of family expectations? As a first-generation Latino/a adult, you might be balancing two cultures, trying to meet everyone's needs while ignoring your own, and struggling to find where you truly belong. You may be the “strong one,” the “eldest ” or the “first” in your family to go to college, have a career, or seek therapy.
I’m here to support you. I offer a safe, culturally, and faith affirming space where your full story is seen and honored. Together, we’ll explore the impact of trauma, anxiety, burn-out, life transitions or enmeshed family dynamics.

Do you ever feel like you can’t fully be yourself? As a bicultural Latina, living between cultures can be confusing, exhausting, and isolating. You’re constantly navigating the pressure of family expectations while trying to define your own identity and it can feel like there’s never space to show up as your whole self. Your experience is complex and deeply personal and your therapy should honor that.

I am a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Health Coach with a broad range of experience in private practice, schools and universities, a private psychiatric hospital, and community mental health clinics.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you're used to holding everything in or feeling like no one truly understands what you're going through. Whether you're navigating stress, emotional overwhelm, cultural or identity-based challenges, or simply feeling stuck, I want to create a space where you feel supported, seen, and valued.

I'm available for telehealth visits to work with adults in individual therapy, and to conduct therapy in Spanish and English.
I view psychotherapy as a collaborative partnership through which clients further develop and enhance their abilities and strengths. My hope is that clients become more cognizant of the internal and external elements that influence their well-being, and serve as energizers and/or drainers in their functioning across various settings. I work with clients to explore their wishes, clarify their goals, and create and implement plans to attain their objectives. In the process, I provide clients support and encouragement in a manner that is genuine, straightforward, thoughtful, and non-judgmental.

Mi terapia puede ser conducida en Ingles y/o Español, ya que manejo los dos idiomas.
La vida es una cadena de transiciones que muchas veces a las personas se nos hace un poco complicado sobrellevar o resolver. Y aunque los cambios nos dan la oportunidad de crecimiento, es muy cierto que estos mismos cambios nos traen mucha angustia y desequilibrio emocional. Yo puedo ayudarte a descubrir y desarrollar las habilidades necesarias para que puedas mantenerte enfocado(a) en lo que es la prioridad para ti y para todos aquellos que te rodean durante estos procesos naturales de transición.

We have a lot in common. As human beings, our nature is dynamic and resilient, but our movement through life is flanked by uncertainty. It's easy to feel unmoored. In an accelerating global culture, we are challenged to listen to the life that's here amid broader questions about what it means to be human. Holistic psychotherapy is about finding healing ground within ourselves and in relationship to the world around us.

Your "Invitation to A Journey" (Baudelaire inspired title) is a journey to your subconscious realm. I practice a therapy model that I copyrighted: "Psychoanalysis Redesigned (PsyR) – Freud a Misunderstood Scientist". It re-introduces selected Freudian concepts while incorporating other therapy dynamics or creating one for you. If necessary, sexuality, a misinterpreted Freudian concept, is adapted to today lifestyle. Inner peace, personal life satisfaction & social integration are the purpose of PsyR. Messages from our subconscious open the door to real healing, in contrast to temporary healing. Are you ready for it?

Let's face it; life can be stressful. Are you feeling overwhelmed with family or work? Taking on more responsibilities than you're capable of managing? Are you caught in the middle of caring for your aging parents while raising your own children and feeling crushed by the pressure? Tired of yelling or simply being frustrated with those you love the most?

I realize that all of these profiles start to sound alike, especially when you're already feeling overwhelmed. And all the different types of therapy can add to the confusion. In 25 years of practice, I've learned that it is the client-therapist relationship, more than the modality that heals.
My clients appear successful but struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, and self-sabotage. Many have spent years prioritizing others and lost touch with what they want for themselves. These struggles have roots in early experiences where it wasn't safe to be fully authentic. They're stuck in survival mode and are exhausted.
