Spanish Therapists in Naperville, IL

Debido a mi enfoque relacional, estoy particularmente interesada en terapia de parejas - especialmente aquellas que pertenecen a poblaciones diversas. Es mi deseo poder acompañar a parejas que están pasando por momentos difíciles en su relación, ya sean problemas de comunicación, infidelidad, transiciones de la vida, ser padres, etc. En mi trabajo de terapia individual, disfruto ayudar a personas que están navegando diferentes etapas de la vida, aquellos que buscan sanar heridas de la infancia, y personas que han sufrido abuso (ya sea en la familia, en amistades, en el trabajo, o en circulos religiosos/iglesia).

Muchas veces nuestra cultura influye en cómo respondemos a factores estresantes diarios o cómo reaccionamos a diferentes emociones. En ocasiones la cultura y los enfoques típicos pueden ser dañinos y provocar trauma. En terapia puedes redefinir cultura y crear normas que son más útiles y conducen a una vida plena. Puedo ayudarte en ese proceso.

I believe that therapy works best as a process of uncovering our truest selves. Oftentimes life hands us burdens of stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and pain that weigh us down and make it difficult to encounter the world in ways that we would like.

I strive to offer a safe space for clients to author a personal narrative that feels genuine, and I operate from a gentle, trauma-informed, strengths-based perspective.
