Should I stay or should I go? A huge question that's weighed on you. It keeps you up at night, stressing you out. Life would be so much easier if your relationship wasn't so hard. You wish you could communicate better; feel understood. But, damn, your shit and their shit get in the way. Not to mention the pressures of career, aging parents, or demanding children. It all gets thrown in the mix, leaving you exhausted, distracted, and disenchanted by the status quo. You want things to change (better sex, intimacy, connection); you're finally ready to take charge of your life in a new and meaningful way. You've come to the right place!

My focus when working with a couple together we aim to strengthen the relationship, increase communication between partners, overcome blocks to communication, increase emotional understanding, enhance emotional connection, identifying negative relationship patterns while working towards improving those patterns.
When working with clients, I see people as unique individuals who are trying to find their own meaning for their lives and a purpose in life. Through therapy we can learn so much about ourselves and our goals which we might not even be aware of up to this point. Part of my belief in therapy is centered in the idea that each person is capable of reaching their desired self or achieving self actualization. I believe individuals and relationships are trying to find their best possible versions of self. In my practice I emphasize promoting communication and emotional awareness.

My work focuses on increasing satisfaction and meaning in people's lives. My goal is providing competent, insight-focused therapy with an emphasis on self-compassion and improving the relationship with the self. My approach is helpful for people trying to navigate burnout, perfectionism, low self-esteem, and self-criticism. Growing up as a biracial Latino, I struggled with navigating questions about racial identity, internalized racism, fitting in with different groups, and managing different sets of cultural expectations. I’m passionate about working with clients who experience similar challenges with any of their identities.

I specialize in helping adult men with trauma and PTSD overcome patterns that keep them feeling stuck so they can experience greater satisfaction in their lives and relationships. Trauma affects everyone differently, but social stigma and expectations for men to be unemotional and strong often lead to feelings of weakness that prevent men from seeking help when needed. Men sometimes externalize symptoms with substance use, anger, relationship conflict, social isolation, and workaholism. My goal is creating a safe space for you to address these patterns and move toward a greater sense of control, connectedness, and wellbeing.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
