At the core of my treatment philosophy is the belief that families heal when movement occurs and people begin to step out of their comfort zones to unlock their potential and capacity for growth. Often there is underlying pain and/or trauma that needs to be addressed in order for the system to recover and break the cycle. Whether the results of the family dysfunction is abuse, addiction, estrangement, divorce, suicide, broken communication paths, or some other behavior, treatment can provide relief.

I work well with individuals who are experiencing symptoms of ADHD, complex trauma, depression, anxiety, and loss of identity-particularly in response to major life transitions. If life feels like it is moving too fast and that you are paralyzed, my somatic orientation can support you in identifying momentum and direction. My deepest desire is to support you as you explore your mind-body connection which I believe can compassionately guide you towards the agency that is your birthright.

We all long to be seen, heard, and truly understood, to be accepted for who we are and appreciated just as we are.
If you're looking to feel more connected to yourself, your body, your emotions, or even to something greater, you're not alone. Whether you're feeling stuck, anxious, grieving, or carrying something from your past that's affecting your life today, you don't have to navigate it by yourself. Together, we can explore what's coming up with compassion, curiosity, respect and kindness.

Do you find that there are unhelpful patterns in your life that you keep repeating? Maybe it's multiple unhealthy relationships, or self-sabotaging behaviors. Do you struggle with an unrelenting inner critic that makes every perceived failure feel catastrophic? Perhaps you're in the midst of a big change or transition in your life and you're struggling to adjust. You're most likely looking for a therapist who is warm and compassionate, who understands your specific struggle, and is able to help you make sense of the swarm of thoughts circling in your head.

Self-Care is not selfish. It is an essential part of progress and a growth mindset. Sometimes getting ‘unstuck’ calls for the help of someone trusted and experienced. I needed to reach out for help after surviving a severe car fire in 1981. I wanted to offer the same type of compassion and collaboration to help others. Life can be difficult and complex. We all could use help along the way to better manage our hassles, hardships, or heartaches. In our work together, I will start by trying to meet you where you are, to speak your emotional language, so we can craft a mutually-agreeable therapy plan.

What a shitshow, right?
This country is wild right now, so no wonder life feels harder! Trying to understand who we are and how to deal with our feelings while worrying about neo-Nazis and mass shootings feels like a LOT.
Clients come to me because I can relate to that feeling. I'm a queer Latina immigrant, and I understand that context impacts how we perceive ourselves. If we work together, know that I'll bring up cultural norms, values and all the ways that it's affecting you.
People say they enjoy working with me because I appreciate directness, and that goes well with their neurodivergence.

The world is on fire (literally) and you're exhausted from navigating a society that wasn't built for you. Constantly masking, managing others' comfort, or shrinking parts of yourself. Maybe you're carrying intergenerational trauma or struggling to maintain relationships while barely keeping yourself afloat.
You need someone who understands how systems of oppression have impacted your nervous system and relationships. You're ready to stop being in survival mode and start reclaiming pleasure, rest, and boundaries that honor your needs.

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to check out my page; I know searching for a therapist can be overwhelming. None of us were given an instruction manual for figuring out how to navigate life and its challenges and surprises, but I often see therapy as a space where you can start to build your own cheat sheets and figure out what works for you.
Helping individuals and relationships apply their unique blend of strengths and values to achieve their goals in an affirming, collaborative, casual environment is what I excel at. I use curiosity, humor, and therapeutic skills to tailor therapy to your life, values, and culture.
