If you’re looking for a calm place to sort through life, relationships, or big emotions at your own pace, therapy can offer the support and clarity you’ve been needing.
I blend EMDR, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused tools to help you understand your emotions and patterns in a calm, grounded way. My style is warm and collaborative, and as a bilingual LMHC born in Panama, I support first-gen and bicultural clients with cultural awareness.
I offer a compassionate, grounding space where you can slow down, reflect, and feel supported. You don’t have to manage everything alone. También hablo español y puedo ofrecer sesiones en español o Spanglish.
