Life can be challenging, especially when feelings of pain, confusion, sadness, and anxiety seem to hold us back. If you're experiencing moments of feeling stuck or overwhelmed, know that you're not alone. Sometimes, receiving an external perspective and validation can help you better understand yourself and embrace that person confidently. I offer tools for empowerment, confidence, and peace.

This is not your typical therapy session. For change to occur, we must resource the nervous system in a healthy way to process emotions and feel safe in our bodies. Culturally many of us have been taught to process emotions cognitively and with rationalizing the 'why' of events. However, this doesn't calm our nervous system; in fact, where this way of coping may have served us well at one point in our lives, it may now make the struggle to let emotions flow, harder. Somatic therapies like brainspotting and guided drawing create new neural pathways to feel safely embodied. We need access to our implicit world for embodied solutions.

If not for the friends and counselors in my life, I don't know where I would be today. Growing up in Colombia during a time of civil unrest, I witnessed much suffering and was personally touched by it as I experienced the murder of my father. The effects this had on me and my family are what lead me to the place of seeking help. We all need someone who will listen, comfort, and guide us towards health and healing. As a recipient of great care, I passionately aspire to give what has been given to me.

Do you want to be healthy? That's the goal for many of us. We really do want to be healthy. We really want to truly experience wholeness...emotionally, mentally, physically, relationally, and spiritually. But the fact is we often find ourselves in a journey elsewhere. Life takes us down a different road. Detours become commonplace. We sometimes lose our way. We get distracted and miss our turn. Our pursuit of wholeness can quickly become a journey to simply survive. Our journey can leave us feeling alone and isolated without a connection with anyone.

Do you ever feel like a contradiction? One day you're committed- the next you just can't even go there? Ever doubted WHO you really are? My most successful clients have already experienced typical counseling and talk therapy and want to go deeper. They've tried all the positive thinking, grounding, and thought interruption techniques and, quite frankly, want to find peace, calm, and happiness without working so hard to moderate their every move. I will guide you through a meditation-like session where you will deeply befriend the various parts of who you are currently pulling you in different directions. Lasting change w/ Self Trust
