I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist and first-generation immigrant who deeply believes in hope—the kind that keeps playing like music even when we cannot hear it. I believe in each person’s innate ability to find peace within themselves and in their relationships. I am passionate about the ripple effect of healing and how it can be passed from one generation to the next. I recognize that the world does not always make space for us to fully be who we are. In therapy, I enjoy walking alongside my clients as they explore who they are to themselves, who they are seen as, and who they are becoming.

Life is way too short to feel like your best isn't good enough. Too short to fear you will not be accepted as you are and feel as though you have to live in your own shadow. You do not have to avoid certain people, places, or feelings to feel in control of your body. Could you be holding yourself back from being your best self? Kind of like self-sabotage? Do you have difficulty trusting others or building bonds out of fear they are just going to leave you? This could lead to experiencing difficulty maintaining any type of relationship.

I am currently taking new supervisees and clients. Traditional psychotherapy works toward congruence in a persons thinking, emotions, actions, and life choices. Identifying and releasing attitudes and old images held in our physical structure adds an important component to therapy. This promotes lasting change, allowing for free flow of life energy from within us so we can more fully realize our life, our joy. I am the founder of Seattle School of Body-Psychotherapy, and Body-Psychotherapy of Seattle, and offer somatic therapy in the Seattle area and on-line.

Do you sometimes feel alone, overlooked, or unheard in your relationship? Are you desiring a deeper connection and more meaningful communication? At times, relationships can feel imbalanced or disconnected, leaving individuals feeling uncertain and vulnerable. When trust or respect erodes, couples can lose their sense of direction and purpose.

As time moves faster and to-do lists grow longer, it's no wonder so many of us struggle to take care of ourselves. Therapy with me involves slowing down and finding the right language to describe experiences you may not have had time to process. What a difference it makes to aim to trust versus love yourself, or to describe yourself as a pessimist versus a broken-hearted optimist.

You feel overwhelmed and disconnected. Out of desperation, you cry out to the world - but its unresponsive face is hollow and emotionless. You ache to feel grounded and alive again, but life has robbed you of your ability to make any meaningful contact with it. In your web of relationships, you feel utterly alone. You know that relationships are supposed to be vital for your wellbeing, yet they have been the centerpiece in your suffering. In this absurd life, it is so easy to fall into the cracks of isolation, meaninglessness and all the things that bind us.

It takes courage to ask for help. Life seems to throw us one challenge after another and we can feel weighed down by the stress of daily living. Sometimes we can lose sight of what makes us feel special and valued. I am here to work with your individual needs. Feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, and loneliness can leave us feeling disconnected from others. If we do not take the time to understand where these feelings stem from and how they affect us, we cannot begin to heal and feel whole again. I value you as an individual and want to understand your unique experiences. I want to help you to feel safe and accepted at all times.

I specialize in compassionate psychotherapy with a focus on relationships, sex, and intimacy. My approach is personalized and integrates Developmental Model techniques with affirming care for those in kink and polyamorous communities. I help individuals and partners navigate the complexities of intimacy and connection. In a culture that often prioritizes individuality over community, many people feel isolated—especially when it comes to something as stigmatized as sex. You're not alone.

Like in music, sometimes in life we need to pause and listen to how the notes of our experiences resonate before moving on. The practice of pausing and reflecting offers a chance to consider the meaning of what has come before, so we can more effectively engage this moment now to ultimately yield beauty and connection with life we might have never known. This is Fermata Therapy. Here, we listen to the tune of your life, past and present. With pause and reflection, we make space for you to discover and create what is needed—a different rhythm, key, or voice better suited to your melody—so you can live your most authentic life-song.

It can often feel isolating trying to navigate overwhelming emotions that feel difficult to control, and I’m here to remind you that you don’t have to face it alone.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and have been working as a psychotherapist for over 25 years. My orientation is psychodynamic and relational, which means that I view psychotherapy as a collaboration between therapist and client focused on exploring thoughts and feelings as they emerge in the context of a therapeutic relationship. Ultimately, successful psychotherapy may alleviate suffering, increase self-awareness, help one enjoy a broader range of emotional experience, and enhance one's ability to engage more fully in relationships with others.
