Are you a Millennial or Gen Z individual struggling with relationship challenges? Do you feel overwhelmed with new connections, dating, relationship insecurity, or enduring relationship changes? Do you wonder how your relationships could be better? Now more than ever, individuals are feeling challenged in building and maintaining healthy connections, letting go of unhelpful relationship patterns, and navigating relationship insecurities & changes. Whether you are navigating divorce, people-pleasing behaviors, low self-esteem, or boundary setting, I'm here to guide you toward emotional security and confidence in your relationships.
I specialize in treating adults in their 20s & 30s facing anxiety and trauma related to relationships. We can work together to understand your emotional needs, explore relationship patterns, attachment, & identify what allows you to feel secure. I am trained in ACT, IFS, CBT, trauma informed care, and we can collaborate to identify the best approach for you.
As a Black and Latinx therapist, creating a safe and inclusive space is a top priority for me. I look forward to the opportunity to honor you and your unique experiences, while best supporting you in accomplishing your goals. I offer Virtual Therapy across California, and Walk & Talk Therapy in San Diego. Call or email me today for a free consultation!
