Hispanic and Latino Therapists in Austin, TX
Finding the right therapist can be overwhelming. I provide free consultations so you can get an idea if we are a good fit. It has been my passion the last 17 years to help people after experiencing traumatic events. I am trained in EMDR which is also known as "no talk therapy". You can share as much or as little as you like making it a preferable type of therapy for those struggling with trauma but not comfortable talking about it. I have also worked closely with first responders for the last 10 years making me familiar with the culture. I also provide consultation and subject matter testimony for domestic violence trials.

You’re capable and high-functioning, but something’s off. You feel disconnected: from others, from purpose, maybe even from yourself. You’re not falling apart, but you’re not thriving either. I work with people who are navigating identity, pressure, and emotional barriers they’ve carried for years. If you’re ready for a direct, grounded approach that doesn’t waste your time, I’m here for it. I don’t believe in sugar-coating. My style is direct, intuitive, and rooted in reality. Therapy with me is about showing up honestly and doing the work that matters.

You’re thoughtful, self-aware, and capable—but you feel disconnected from yourself, from other people, or from any clear sense of meaning. You may notice the same relationship patterns repeating, a persistent sense of emptiness, or a feeling that life looks fine on the outside but doesn’t feel right on the inside. You want more than coping skills—you want to understand yourself at a deeper level, feel genuinely connected to others, and live in a way that feels internally honest and meaningful.

I bring lived experience as a first-generation Mexican American navigating cultural identity, late-diagnosed neurodivergence, and complex trauma.
Something’s off and you can’t quite name it. You’re doing everything right. The career, the relationships, the keeping-it-together. But underneath, you’re exhausted. You’ve been in survival mode so long it feels normal. Maybe you grew up carrying more than a kid should. Maybe you’re first-gen, neurodivergent, or both, spending your life fitting into spaces that weren’t built for you. The self-help books, the podcasts, the social media therapists? None of it stuck. And now you’re wondering what’s wrong with you. Here’s what I want you to hear: you’re not broken. You never were.

Maybe you're an individual feeling stuck by past trauma or a couple seeking deeper connection. You want to understand yourself better, build healthier relationships, and reclaim your narrative in a space where all parts of you are welcome.

I work with teens and young adults who are dealing with things like eating disorders, body image struggles, anxiety, mood challenges, relationship stress, or big life transitions. They may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to break old patterns, and are looking for guidance and support in a space that feels warm and understanding. In our work together, we’ll take time to explore what’s been coming up for them, make sense of patterns, and support healing in a way that feels doable and compassionate.

I'm a gay, liberal, Hispanic, male veteran who is ready to help you figure out your situation.
You're in the chaos right now - relationship just ended, porn use spiraling, recovering from a narcissistic ex, or stuck in anxious-avoidant dating patterns. You need someone who gets it and can help you understand why you keep ending up here.
I work with people ready to examine the hard stuff: attachment patterns, relationship choices, building real self-worth. I'm passionate about helping people date healthier (learned this the hard way myself). I see therapists needing their own space too.
Specialties: sexuality, sex/porn addiction, narcissistic abuse recovery, LGBTQ+ issues, attachment/dating/poly, self-esteem.

A space where you can explore your story, understand your patterns, and begin to reconnect with yourself in deeper, more empowering ways.

You’re overlooking yourself while over-extending for others, and you're over it. Tasks, responsibilities, and commitments pile on, and you're left wondering what contortions your schedule will make to fit them all in. You're getting that “running on empty” memo from fatigue. And as you take time with the people that matter most to you, it’s hard not to be distracted by stress and worry which has you missing out on enjoying the moment fully. Life may be feeling like you're trying to take a deep and satisfying breath but it falls short because it feels blocked. And here is where we cross paths!

Are you currently in a position that feels uncomfortable? Perhaps you don’t know what else to do, you feel stuck, or are confused on what’s next? Life can get challenging at times, but you don’t have to feel that way forever.

We all long to feel connected, known, and loved. And when we don’t, it can create tremendous suffering. In response to our pain, we adapt and learn ways to cope- ultimately seeking to make intolerable feelings tolerable. But our coping strategies disconnect us from who we truly are and come at a high cost. I offer a therapeutic lifeline that empowers you to claim your inherent worth and inner knowing. I deeply respect and want to nurture the wisdom you hold inside yourself. You may worry that you are too flawed, but together we can rediscover your worthiness and the inherent beauty within you.

Life can be difficult and is filled with challenges and traumatic experiences that require our attention and care in order to heal. We are skilled at silencing the aching inside via escape hatches: excessive shopping, over/under eating, using drugs or alcohol, sex, gambling, gaming, etc. Yet, a therapeutic relationship can offer support as we move into freedom by learning to live in the present moment with all life has to offer.

As humans, we are constantly challenged by the imperfections and expectations of society. It can be confusing, discouraging, and at times can dim the light within us. It can also make us feel lost and disconnected from ourselves and others. Investing in yourself is the best way to overcome these challenges and learn more about your thoughts, behaviors, beliefs, and values.
