Being human means experiencing pain and disappointment. Relationships end. Loved ones die. Promotions go to less deserving co-workers. But we humans are resilient creatures. Each and every day billions of us wake up, put both feet on the floor, and handle whatever life puts in front of us. For most of us, making it through one seemingly impossible challenge is what gives us the courage and strength to face the next one. The more we face, the more we grow. But it does get tiring, right? Therapy can provide a safe, judgement-free space to rest your feet, take a breath, and prepare for whatever life might throw at you next.

Do I joke about the word "journey"? Yes. Do I still use it? Yes. You are not behind. You are not “too much.” Healing is not linear (seriously, it’s more like a maze), and giving yourself grace and permission to focus on you is key. I’m an English/Spanish-speaking licensed psychotherapist who helps people figure out who they are underneath all the stress, trauma, and survival mode. I’ve spent the last 5 years helping clients to work through trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, couples therapy, ptsd, anger disorders, and more —basically, a full tour of the emotional landscape.

We cannot change past chapters of our lives. Where we can take power is now, and the future chapters we have yet to write. If we don't address something unhealthy, every aspect of life can become impacted negatively. Whether you are wanting to learn to manage mental health symptoms, begin the transitioning process, seeking help for everyday concerns like relationship issues, job stress or self-doubt, or experiencing difficult times such as divorce and loss, things can improve. I assure you the strength and ability you will use is already residing in you.

Psychoanalytic Therapists
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviors. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.

How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behavior is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.

Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.

Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
