About
I believe we have an innate yearning and capacity for growth and healing. The power of a trusting therapeutic relationship allows for this change to occur. My style is warm, inviting, attuned, present-moment focused, and reflective. I utilize an integrative approach to psychotherapy, drawing from a number of evidence-based modalities, including: AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy), Brief Dynamic Psychotherapy, ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), and Mindfulness-based practices.
I am a skilled generalist with 16+ years in the field. I welcome both individuals and couples into my practice. My work is focused on helping you navigate periods of high stress and difficulty, finding a deeper emotional stability, getting unstuck from old patterns, and building a wider range of emotional expression.
I have helped many struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, LGBTQ+ identity, new parenting struggles, creativity blocks, and work-life balance. I am sensitive to the influence race/ethnicity, culture, class, spirituality, gender and sexuality have in shaping our experience. I am a bilingual English/Spanish speaker.
