I am an associate therapist at The Center for Compassion, where we provide mindful care for painful times. I believe that with the proper support, a person can begin to rebuild, adjust, and make meaning out of their experiences and losses, all while continuing to honor and feel connected to their loved one along the way. I am passionate about helping others navigate through grief, loss, trauma, and life’s many challenges. I have experience in several different social work settings; including schools, hospice, and grief support. These experiences have given me the skills to support those enduring many different life challenges.

Are you your own worst enemy? Does your inner voice say, "What's wrong with me" "Why did I do that" "I should(n't)..." "I'm not good enough" Together, we can find a different way to relate to yourself. I invite you to consider, when you learn to offer yourself love and compassion, you deepen intimacy, connection and respect within your relationships, increase confidence, achieve goals, and attract your dreams. Once we choose love for ourselves, everything changes! "Our wounds are often openings into the best and most beautiful part of us" ~ Richo

I am a licensed associate counselor who has a special interest in working with adults of all ages, trauma, depression, and grief/loss. Growing up as a first generation Latina, I am passionate about breaking generational cycles of trauma. I have worked for many years as a clinician in crisis settings with individuals who struggle with chronic suicidal ideation, self-harming, and mood and personality disorders.

As you search for a solution to the problem you are facing, you may feel that you are in the dark. My goal as a therapist is to help you find your eyes in the dark. Together we will seek to identify the problem and help you to stand against it. We will evaluate your unique story and work to rewrite it towards the preferred outcome that you will define. My unique perspective as a counselor with a visual impairment qualifies me to provide a view of the problem that is different than most counselors.

In my experience, withholding, avoiding, or denying deep emotion is often the culprit behind suffering. My integrative therapeutic approach creates a safe environment for you to express those deep emotions. Employing curiosity and respect, I'll use stirring, intentional questions to dislodge buried sentiments. In doing so, you're free to uncover a sense of connection and stability in life. The primary goal of therapy is to enliven and enhance your emotional experiences and relationships through actionable insights. During this process, I pay close attention to what you say about yourself as guiding points for potential growth.

If you or your teen is feeling stuck, we can help. You are not alone.

Hi, I’m Cynthia. Welcome to Desert Somatics & Psychotherapy. In this practice, I endeavor to create a safe, healing space for people to work with the most vulnerable parts of themselves. When you are facing anxiety, depression, burnout, overwhelm, grief and loss, or the residual effects of traumatic situations or experiences, it can feel insurmountable. My passion is helping people to take the big, scary events, feelings, thoughts, and life experiences they are facing and to break them down into manageable pieces we can work through together. In so doing, we find that healing and repair are possible.

I truly hope to create that sacred space where you can do the work of your heart and soul.

I believe that change occurs when we are met with compassion, deep listening and provided with a sense of hope. I focus specifically on traumatic grief with an understanding there is no wrong way to feel, no timeline or expectations. My approach is individualized and draws upon several interventions such as the ATTEND Model, mindfulness and CBT. I come from a trauma-informed perspective and believe that each person's experience is unique with their own strengths to be utilized. Many of my clients have lost loved ones due to suicide, homicide, accidental deaths, medical malpractice, unresolved deaths and long term illnesses.

I offer a collaborative and integrative approach for clients seeking insight to their challenges. My attitude towards therapy is that there is not one universal method that works best for anyone, therefore, I use an appropriate blend of modalities to help you overcome whatever you are currently experiencing. I believe that you are the expert in your own life and I am here to help you navigate the difficulties you are currently facing. I concentrate on developing a partnership with clients to identify strengths and areas of potential growth to make meaning and implement positive change.

Humans are by nature social animals and yet many of us have lost connection within ourselves and our community. I believe this is due, in part, to a frantic world that has led to relational trauma, a poor sense of self, health challenges, addiction, loss and isolation. Feeling relevant, finding meaning, having a mission, knowing joy and learning emotional regulation/tolerance/resiliency are ways in which we can heal ourselves and the world at large. I work with individuals (adults only) and couples.
