Do you long for a deeper sense of peace, wholeness and connection to life? Do repetitive patterns prevent you from having a fulfilling life and satisfying relationships? Any issue or symptom, such as addiction, depression or anxiety, or an underlying sense of disconnection, fear or doubt, is a message from your unconscious that something inside Is out of alignment. We will collaboratively explore your experiences and their meaning to help you connect to yourself and life in a fuller and more satisfying way.
I have expertise and interest in working with life transitions of all kinds. I am particularly interested in working with mid-life transitions as well as with older adults who are interested in exploring the many challenges and opportunites of aging consciously. I also work with work-life balance concerns which are common in this digital age.
In addition to "talk therapy" we may work with your dreams and use Sandtray to access the "unthought known," the layers of feeling and memory that are embedded deep in your unconscious mind. Soy bilingue Español/Inglés

I am a depth psychotherapist, which means we will explore whatever brings you to therapy with a multiple focus: we'll collaboratively look at what is challenging in your life now, its roots in your early life and how it has showed up previously, as well as the message your unconscious mind/psyche is expressing about what needs attention and healing in your life at this time.
