Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from themselves after long periods of stress, trauma, loss, or significant life changes. They may be navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, or family transitions, and often carry old beliefs shaped by early experiences or identity-based stress. These individuals are often reflective and sensitive, seeking clarity, steadiness, and a deeper sense of connection; not quick fixes, but support that feels thoughtful, respectful, and sustainable.
I’m a neurodivergent, Latina therapist offering trauma-informed care that is collaborative and grounded. Together, we explore how traumatic and relational experiences shape the present, gently challenge self-critical patterns, and strengthen inner resources in ways that feel empowering, sustainable, and supportive of your whole self.
Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, especially if you’ve been holding things together for a long time. In working together, we slow things down to understand what you’re carrying and reconnect with what matters to you. If this resonates, let’s connect and see whether working together feels supportive.

I help clients work through trauma, grief, loss, and major life transitions. Our work involves slowing things down to notice patterns, explore how past and relational experiences shape the present, and reclaim a sense of agency. Over time, clients often develop insight, a stronger ability to ground themselves, and more autonomy in how they live, relate, and make meaning of their experiences.

I work from trauma-informed, depth-oriented approaches, including EMDR. Sessions are relational and reflective, with space to slow down, notice patterns, and work toward meaningful change. Trauma processing unfolds collaboratively, with attention to pacing, grounding, and emotional safety.
