Hispanic and Latino Therapists in Faribault, MN

I am a Latinx bilingual licensed psychologist dedicated to supporting people from diverse cultural and economic background as they cultivate their own resilience building practices. I use my experience working with patients to determine how to best facilitate the development of a healthy mind/body. The human psyche is beautifully complicated. It can create for us moments of exhilarating joy and excruciating pain. The key to maximize joy and minimize pain is very different for each individual. It is important to have a wide range of resilience building practices to draw from in order to create individualized self-care plans.

I identify as a cis, straight, immigrant, Latina or Latinx woman & social worker. My work focuses on offering empathy, support, promoting insight, and working collaboratively to achieve goals. I strive to understand people's experiences within their own unique context and take into account larger community and social issues, and how they impact our experience.

Sometimes you may find yourself experiencing conflicting emotions or in complex relationships. Therapy helps you find clarity and return to emotional wellness. I include family members in session when helpful and I explore with you ways to achieve enriching emotional and interpersonal experiences.

I provide supportive, challenging and direct therapy through a variety of strengths-based, trauma-informed, therapy modalities.

I am trained in DBT, EMDR (Certified Therapist, Approved Consultant and Trainer), and developed batterer intervention programs.

The clients I treat vary in issues, from individual to family issues, and from seemingly simple to highly complex cases.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is better understand your own story. Working through your past allows you to better understand your patterns, beliefs, and strengths to optimize where you are headed. Too often in life, we experience events that silence us, making it hard to know where to turn. In my office I work hard to create and hold spaces for my clients that are rooted in compassion, empathy, and safety. No matter where you are in your healing journey, I believe everyone has the potential to find more peace and live closer to their authentic beings.

Are you wondering how past traumatic events are impacting your life? Would you like to heal from childhood trauma? Or, do you describe yourself as an angry and resentful person, and you would like to manage your emotions in a healthier way? Or, do you need to feel understood and not judged? If any of these scenarios describe you, you need a safe space to fully express all aspects of what you are experiencing in order to find emotional well-being.

I love to work with folks who are ready to connect with their innate power to heal and flourish in their lives. These folks may be feeling stuck in one way or another pushed to experience more, but not sure how to get there. They may be experiencing symptoms such as anxiety or depression because of this internal tug of war, or a sense of dissatisfaction in their jobs, relationships, or the accomplishment of their life goals. We all want to feel empowered to fulfill our dreams and potential in this life and I am here to help you connect to your innate ability to do so.
