You want to live a meaningful and fulfilled life, but instead, you feel exhausted, overwhelmed by anxiety, or uncertain about the future. Adjusting to a new place or navigating a major life transition can leave you questioning your identity. Are you struggling to reconcile who you’ve been with who you’re becoming? On the outside, everything seems fine, but on the inside, negative self-talk and self-doubt take over. You may appear in control, yet deep down, you feel disconnected from the life you want to live.
If this resonates with you, you're not alone. I specialize in helping young adults and individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds who are facing anxiety, identity challenges, and navigating life transitions.
Using a relational psychodynamic and culturally sensitive approach, I work with you to explore these challenges, helping you build a more authentic, intentional, and fulfilling life. Getting started is simple: Call me or send me an email (preferred) to schedule your free, no-obligation 15 minute phone consultation today.

Aunque hayan pasado varios años desde que emigraste, sientes que algo en tu identidad ha cambiado. Experimentas un desarraigo que te dificulta encontrar un sentido de pertenencia. Cuando visitas tu lugar de origen, tampoco te sientes "en casa," como si fueras "ni de aquí, ni de allá." ¿Te gustaría encontrar un espacio seguro donde puedas explorar quién eras, quién eres, y quién quieres ser? A supportive introductory group for immigrants facilitated by Alba Prados, LPC and Paula Otero, LPC.
