Hispanic and Latino Therapists in Portland, OR
I work with adult men who want to feel closer to others but find themselves stuck in relationship worries, loneliness, or self-doubt. You might replay conversations, keep the peace while your needs go unspoken, or find that hurt comes out as anger or distance. You may want someone to understand you, yet feel unsure how to explain what’s happening. We can start there, exploring what’s difficult now and how earlier experiences may shape the ways you relate to others, with room to discover what you need and feel more like yourself.

I’m a specialist in relationships, and parenting based in the states of Oregon and Texas, but I see clients globally. When I was a child refugee, I experienced a lot of sensitivity around transition and abrupt change. I get what it feels like to be dysregulated in the nervous system while being expected to adapt quickly. If you find yourself in a relationship that’s going haywire, you are tired and exhausted from not feeling the kind of connection that you really want, together we can help you who feels safe in relationships, and get your wants finally met.

There is currently a lot of uncertainty in the world. Now, more than ever it is important to find the support we might have been lacking. Usually, we feel as if we can tackle everything on our own, but that might not be the case anymore. Taking the step to care for yourself not only benefits you, but those around you. In my experience, I have found that the most healing moments occur when we are able to be completely open with another person and then be accepted for who we truly are. I value all my clients whole-heatedly and emphasize your autonomy and personal choice. I believe that you are the expert on your own life.

Many of the clients I work with struggle with anxiety or the impact of past traumas; feeling stuck in patterns, overwhelmed by thoughts, or weighed down by emotions that don’t easily resolve. I believe healing begins with a sense of safety & the ability to explore your experience at your own pace. I offer a steady, authentic, & supportive space to help you reconnect with yourself & move forward. I am also passionate about helping couples strengthen connection, rebuild trust, & heal together. I support partners navigating emotional disconnection, unhealed wounds, communication challenges, parenting stress, & major life transitions.

Trying to accomplish our life goals while dealing with complex identities or circumstances can be frustrating and lonely. What would it be like to feel seen, heard, and empowered? You are facing multiple different pressures at once including marginalization, dual diagnosis, disability, parenting, victimization, amongst others. You may also be navigating complex and oppressive systems such as medical care, career pathways, government assistance, immigration, or housing, to name a few. There's a desire for someone to help unravel these complexities and make breathing feel a little bit easier.

Waitlist for new clients
As a counselor, my goal is to provide a nonjudgmental, trauma-informed space to process complex emotions while also challenging old patterns of behavior that are no longer serving my clients. My approach to therapy is collaborative. Together we can uncover strengths, foster coping tools to improve daily functioning and quality of life. I am a psychodynamic, attachment-based therapist, which means we will explore past experiences including messages about self, others, and the world and how they can be hindering current patterns and overall well-being.

I approach therapy from the belief that everyone has the ability to heal. My goal is to help you gain trust in yourself and recognize your unique strengths. I seek to support you in building a sense of empowerment within oppressive systems or challenging situations. What this looks like in the therapy room is me giving information on skills, identifying patterns, supporting you in finding creative solutions, and facilitating emotional processing.

Our clients identify as Black/African-American, Asian, Caucasian, Multiracial, BIPOC, Middle Eastern, Hispanic/ Latinx.
On the outside, it seems like you have it all together, but inside, you feel stressed and overwhelmed. You've heard that bottling up emotions isn't healthy, but what else can you do? Your to-do list is endless, and so many people depend on you. Your own needs always take a back seat and when you try to set boundaries, you end up feeling guilty, anxious, or depressed. Sometimes you wonder what you truly want, but you're so disconnected from yourself that it's hard to know. You thought you'd feel more in control of your life by now and worry that something's wrong because you don't. Deep down, you fear you might not measure up.

I want to help you feel calm, confident, and able to cope with life's challenges. My favorite thing about therapy is holding space for clients with patience and non-judgement. When I see client's inner child come out, I know best to hold space for them with compassion and positive regard. This way they feel supported in looking at what makes them human, "imperfections" and all. They experience themselves in a nuanced light and therefore begin to grow.
You have chosen to start therapy and you are likely in the midst of change and transition. I feel honored to witness your journey and watch you bloom.
