Thank you for visiting me. I know preparing yourself to find a therapist that you feel comfortable with and someone you can trust is not easy. It takes a lot of courage. If you’ve gotten to this point of being ready to speak with someone new, you’re doing a great job. I consider the therapeutic relationship as one of the most important factors for healing. I prioritize making my clients feel at ease, safe, and understood. My main goals in our work together will be to always have hope that everything is healable and to always treat you and your journey with the upmost respect and compassion.
I'm a bilingual/bicultural Latinx therapist of Colombian descent with an extensive history working with a social justice framework. I offer three techniques proven to most successfully decrease depression and anxiety: 1) EMDR 2) Brainspotting 3) Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) I also offer Integration therapy, talk therapy, and mindfulness.
My approach to therapy is that sometimes we carry really large backpacks that hold our histories, thoughts, and wounds. Those backpacks can get really heavy and sometimes we don’t want anyone to see that we’re holding them. My goal will be to gently help you unpack it, organize, and let go of things so that you can start to feel lighter, freer, and better.

I specifically use EMDR and Brainspotting in my therapy work as they are the most successful treatments for trauma as recognized by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS). Without fail, all of my clients notice an immediate reduction in their symptoms of anxiety or sadness. I would be honored to support you.
