You’ve spent most of your life being the strong one — the one who held it together, kept going, and figured it out, even when it cost you. Maybe you grew up in a home where love was real and complicated at the same time. Maybe you were the first in your family to make it this far and somehow feel more lost, not less. Maybe you’re excelling professionally — leading teams, building something — while quietly falling apart inside. You’ve outgrown survival mode, but you’re not sure who you are without it. The parts of you that kept you going made sense. You don’t have to keep running on them forever.
I work with first-generation Latinos, high-achieving women, executives, and entrepreneurs — and bicultural and biracial individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, complex family systems, burnout, and identity shifts. My approach is trauma-informed, IFS and EMDR-informed, and rooted in cultural humility. Services offered in English and Spanish.
I’m hopeful that during our work you’ll have a deeper understanding of yourself — what drives you, what’s been protecting you, and what’s ready to be released. You’ll have language for what you’ve been carrying, and feel clearer, lighter, more grounded. If this resonated, send me a message or schedule a free consultation. That one step is all it takes.

My approach draws from IFS, EMDR, Family Systems, and culturally-responsive frameworks. Sessions feel collaborative and exploratory — we'll slow down, get curious about what's showing up, and work toward healing that honors your full story. You will leave understanding yourself differently — with clarity about who you are and room to finally breathe.
