You deserve therapy that understands your culture, your lived experiences, and the pressures you navigate every day. As a Latinx & BIPOC therapist in Chicago, I provide a safe, supportive, and culturally responsive space for adults seeking healing, clarity, and emotional balance. I specialize in working with Latinx and BIPOC individuals, as well as men navigating stress, identity challenges, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship difficulties.
Many clients feel overwhelmed or weighed down by stress. Together we slow things down, unpack what feels heavy, and build tools to help you feel grounded and empowered. My style is warm and evidence-based, integrating trauma-informed care, mindfulness, CBT, IFS, and inner child work.
My approach is warm, intuitive, and evidence-based, integrating trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and person centered within a culturally attuned lens. También ofrezco apoyo en español. I offer morning, midday, and evening telehealth sessions for Illinois residents. Click “Email Me” to schedule your free 10-min consult.
