My work is especially helpful to those suffering from depression and the loss of loved ones whether its via death, or divorce/separation. I first address a re-focusing on the love of self and move outwards, because without developing or healing our true love of self, we can't effectively love others.

You may have done years of therapy or self-work, yet still feel disconnected—from your body, your emotions, or your sense of direction. You may feel stuck in survival mode, carrying the effects of complex trauma (C-PTSD), childhood sexual abuse, or long-unresolved grief. I help adults who are ready to move beyond talking about their pain and begin feeling and transforming it. My approach blends somatic (body-based) therapy, Gestalt, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) within a mindful, compassionate, and spiritually grounded lens.

Coming from a six year background in health education and medical case management, I have come to understand that our bodies and minds don’t always serve us the way we would like them to. I rely on this knowledge to explore psychosomatic connections in the therapeutic space, while honoring how trauma or disconnect presents itself. Whether you find yourself confronting relationship difficulties or trauma, struggling with emotions surrounding major life changes, or bearing the burden of societal pressures on who you should be or how you should look; I offer a safe space to show up bravely.

I work from a culturally-sensitive relational and Family System approach helping People of the Global Majority (PoGM) (BIPOC) Black, Indigenous, Brown, Latinx peoples, Afro-Latinos, biracial and multiracial understand their identity, values, morals, legacies, invisible loyalty, and trans-generational trauma.
I work with those from all walks of life experiencing loss, intense emotions, family estrangement, and trauma. Healing is rooted in the understanding that experiences with systematic oppression have hurful effects on personal well-being, interpersonal relationships, and physical health. If you are experiencing doubt, fear, or lack of connection in your life, I can help. I utilize non-traditional approaches to explore connections between how cultural experiences affect dynamics between family members and within the community.

Life doesn’t always pause when we need to catch our breath. My clients are often high-achieving, purpose-driven adults who are exhausted from “pushing through.” They want to feel balanced again — to reclaim their peace, focus, and sense of self while navigating life’s transitions, relationships, and responsibilities. I specialize in helping clients unpack the layers of stress, trauma, and identity that impact how they show up in the world. Through a trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and relational lens, we explore not just what’s happening — but why — creating space for self-awareness, healing, and growth.

My name is Elizabeth, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, crisis, and suicidal thoughts. I've worked in a variety of settings, including inpatient, outpatient, and hospital environments, which has given me experience supporting clients through both acute challenges and longer-term healing. My approach to therapy is relaxed, collaborative, and human. I'm down-to-earth and not overly analytical-I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation rather than an interrogation.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists
What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?
An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.

How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.

How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
