Life is about maintaining balance in all aspects, through love. There is so much out there to learn and grow from, so why not have fun doing it? A little about me: I love going to CrossFit every morning. I am a huge nerd, constantly listening to audibles and/or podcasts such as Huberman Lab and non-fiction books. I enjoy being outdoors: snowboarding, motorcycle/dirt biking, hiking, any movement &traveling. My parents are from Peru, so I visit there often. Tambien hablo español! Therapy can help your understanding of where your emotions come from connecting the past to the present, and decreasing the intensity by making sense of it.
In order for others to understand you, you have to understand yourself first. “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.”-Viktor E Frankl
My therapy style is warm and welcoming, but I won't shy away from challenging you towards health. I want you to heal, grow&flourish. I will explain the science side of therapy using psychoeducation, and predict the process to set you up for success. My goal for you is to heal the root, it won’t be easy but it will be worth it and I will guide you every step.
