I am a native Spanish speaker and welcome those who prefer to do therapy in their language.
Longing for a meaningful life is inherent to being human. Yet, no one hands us a manual, so we often feel stuck. This is where therapists can provide relief. My practice is dedicated to motivated clients ready to embrace transformation by confronting limiting beliefs and behaviors. Therapy requires courage to examine and disrupt harmful patterns and narratives to achieve clarity, resilience, and fulfillment. As your therapist, I can help you harness your innate capacity to grow in ways that align with your values. I use an integrative lens and draw on a wide array of theories and strategies to tailor sessions to your unique needs.

Change is one of the few constants in life... but we all have been in a place where a "change" on how we relate, reason and think ... has been easier said than done. When was the last time that you looked into you?
As a fellow human being, I know that feeling vulnerable can be unbearable. I believe that we all deserve to be seen and heard, without judgements. I truly enjoy listening to people and empower them to find in therapy a safe space and meaning of their life "story".
Find in me an ally, I also strive on accompanying people to find a personal growth and make informed decisions about their mental health.

Do you feel like you’re never good enough?
Do you feel lost and don't know where to start?
Maybe you have tried everything and nothing works. Maybe you feel exhausted but can't relax even when you try. Our brain is constantly on hyperdrive and it feels impossible to make it stop. Life after trauma is rough, and people who have experienced it struggle with these quite frequently. But if you ready to break this never-ending cycle, I'm the trauma therapist for you! You don't have to have all the answers because, together, we can figure them out!

Are you tired of your wounded child not feeling heard or taking over your body to leave you unsatisfied in your relationships or environment? I can help you heal those traumas that linger from your childhood. I will help you create insight into why you become triggered by certain people and react in certain ways. You will learn to self-soothe and release what no longer serves you. We will discuss how to set appropriate boundaries with people and gain insight into your own behavior that may be getting in the way. I invite you to call me to free yourself from the pain that is plaguing your life.

If you're overwhelmed at work and feeling like you’re failing or barely holding things together in life, I can guide you back to a state of calm and balance. You may be feeling highly anxious or constantly stressed but just can’t see any way to make a change…although you’re afraid if you don’t, something is gonna fall apart - as if you’ve only been faking it. Especially for anyone in the helping professions like healthcare, education, or leadership, you can't seem to manage both the needs of others and your own. It does not diminish your independence to get support, and making time for true self care comes back to you exponentially.

My goal is to help you obtain your goals and to address the issues that are getting in your way. I create a safe and supportive environment that encourages growth and change. We may utilize traditional verbal therapy or tap into the healing power of Art Therapy. Art Therapy requires no special skills as the focus is on the process of art making and the verbal communication included in that process, not the art product itself. My 28 years of experience includes a wide variety of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, victims issues, marital and family conflict.
