Hola! Starting therapy is a big step, I am glad you’re taking this step with me. As your therapist, I will provide a safe, genuine and inclusive place for you to speak your own narrative. I believe everyone has their own unique experiences worthy of being heard. If you are currently experiencing challenging times, I am here to help you cope, grow and reach your full potential. Together, we can explore what overwhelms, disempowers and makes you feel unsafe. I will encourage you to be curious about yourself, find balance and empower your authentic being.
I work through humanistic and a person-centered lens, am eclectic and work with a variety of approaches to best suit the needs of the client. I specialize in trauma, family of origin issues, cultural bias, immigration hardships/adjustment, experience with systems of oppression and identity formation.
As an immigrant, it’s important for me to work and support the BIPOC and LQBTQIA communities. I practice with a multiculturally sensitive and inclusive approach, including offering sessions in English and Spanish. I am committed to a non-judgmental and empathetic environment that allows for comfort and understanding in your experiences.
