You can be surrounded by people and still feel like you’re shouting from underwater. I work with people who struggle to feel connected or believe in their own value, helping them understand why and find their way back. As a Latina therapist, I specialize in trauma therapy, attachment issues, relationship anxiety, and self-esteem. Using a trauma-informed, culturally responsive approach, I help clients heal attachment wounds and generational trauma while honoring the impact of family dynamics, cultural expectations, and systemic oppression—so you can build emotional safety, self-trust, and healthier relationships
In therapy we can learn to honor both the wisdom of your survival strategies and your desire for change. Therapy can be a place to learn to hold discomfort and transform self esteem. Part of my role as your therapist is to help you co-regulate, taking discomfort that alone feels overwhelming and holding it together
Submit your request for therapy services here on Psychology Today or use the link to my website and schedule your Free 15 minutes consultation. I accept Aetna insurance and my private pay fee is $150 per 50 minute session. I look forward to hearing from you!
