I prioritize an identity-affirming environment where we focus on what brings you to therapy. I have extensive experience supporting LGBTQIA+ clients. I am passionate about supporting young adults and professionals dealing with anxiety, relationship problems, isolation, depression, and processing past traumas or unmet needs. I also have over five years’ experience specializing in clients living with chronic illness and family caregivers. My aim is to create a space of self exploration and self acceptance, not just through talk, which is powerful, but by tuning into our bodies and our environment.
I use psychodynamic, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral techniques while also bringing in mind-body modalities and ecotherapy practices. Our sessions may even include healing rituals from around the globe, including my own homes of the southwestern US and Mexico. I utilize EMDR, an evidence based therapy for trauma reprocessing, for those who need it.
Therapy is a collaborative process where we find, together, how to best meet your needs. I believe all people are able to move forward through therapy, and I hope you will reach out even if past attempts to get help have resulted in you feeling judged or unsafe. The power to heal and grow is always present within us; let’s build on your power!
