Spanish-Speaking Therapists in Washington, DC
As a Peruvian-born, bilingual (English/ Spanish) therapist, I enjoy working with members of the international community, and people from diverse backgrounds.
If you feel stuck in old patterns or weighed down by past pain, therapy can help you reconnect—with yourself, your values, and the people who matter most. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition, feeling disconnected, or carrying experiences from the past that still shape your present, you don’t have to face it alone.

Do you find it hard to close your laptop or turn off work notifications, even when the day is technically over? Does your body still feel buzzing with unused energy, like you are bracing for the next email or request? Even during downtime, it can feel difficult to truly relax or step out of work mode. Many of the women I work with feel pressure to stay constantly available, struggle to say no, and worry about being seen as incompetent or unreliable if they slow down. That fear of dropping the ball often leads to overworking, people pleasing, and emotional exhaustion, even when things are going well professionally.

The key to successful therapy is a relationship with a caring, nonjudgmental therapist there to respond sensitively and patiently to whatever comes up. In my work, I offer that to my clients, as we collaborate in developing an understanding of your emotional states and how they drive your thoughts and actions. We’ll learn together what you need to strengthen and grow. My work with children and adolescents informs my understanding of development over the life span, and how those relationships and experiences that shape us are alive in the present moment.

Life in DC can be intense. High expectations, constant pressure, complex relationships, and the feeling that you're supposed to have it together- even when you don't. Many of my clients are high-functioning adults navigating anxiety, chronic stress, dating/relationship challenges, complicated family dynamics, spiritual concerns, and major life transitions. Outwardly things may look "fine," and internally you may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Therapy can be a space to slow down, get honest, and understand your self without judgment or pressure to perform.

Are you dramatic or is it stress or anxiety or fears...or dare I say trauma? Or have you noticed a pattern in you that cannot quite distinguish where it came from or how to overcome it? It can be difficult to navigate life outside of self in your inner world feels unbalanced. An unbalanced inner world tends to affect your day-to-day life, relationships (familial, romantic, or platonic,) careers, and goals. This can feel life-altering when all you crave is peace. Oftentimes, marginalized groups of people are not given the same grace as our counterparts. This is a space to express your innermost thoughts, feelings, and emotions.
