As a Boricua from the Bronx with activism roots, I’m here for the folks who feel like the world wasn’t built for them and refuse to tap out. I support LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent (especially late-diagnosed), and relationally expansive adults navigating systems not built for their brilliance. You’re likely a cycle-breaker trying to heal generational trauma, set radical boundaries, or navigate the complexities of infidelity and relationship repair. You want a life that aligns with your values of justice and authenticity. You matter, and I’ll walk with you while you claim that.
I provide relational, culturally attuned therapy in West Seattle and virtually across WA. Blending decolonial DBT, Internal Family Systems (parts work), and NVC, I help LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, and relationally expansive adults untangle infidelity and generational trauma. We build practical skills to handle heavy emotions without losing your soul.
Things are hard, but you don't have to carry the weight of burnout or identity struggles alone. Grounded in my Bronx-born Boricua roots, I offer a space for collective care and radical authenticity. Whether you're in The Junction or anywhere in Washington, let’s connect for a consultation to see how we can heal and thrive together.
