English
| Español You love each other, but the same arguments keep happening. Conversations escalate, one of you shuts down, and you’re left feeling misunderstood and unsure how to repair.
For many first-generation individuals and couples, relationships carry added pressures. Cultural expectations, family responsibilities, and unspoken roles can shape how we communicate and handle conflict.
I’m an Afro-Latina bilingual Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who helps individuals and couples slow down these patterns, create emotional safety, and move from conflict toward deeper understanding and connection.
In our work together, we slow down the cycles that keep you stuck. Therapy becomes a space to better understand each other, communicate more clearly, and practice repair after difficult moments so connection can grow again.
Couples sessions are 90 minutes, providing more time to work through conflict and strengthen communication. I also offer 3- and 6-hour couples intensives for partners who want focused, structured support and meaningful progress in a shorter period of time. Free 30-minute consultation available.
