I want to help empower you to be your best self. Sometimes we reach a point in life where we feel stuck and we ask ourselves if healing is possible. As humans, we can struggle when we carry unresolved trauma or stress, which can cause us to hold onto negative beliefs. These beliefs impact the way we see ourselves, others, and the world. I want to help you heal and grow from your past experiences, so that you can feel empowered and able to trust yourself to reach your potential.

Relationships...with others and ourselves... are at the core of human experience. I work to empower couples, individuals, and families to live lives of meaning, connection, love, and happiness. I have dedicated training in Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) for relationship healing. Grounded in research and regarded as the most effective approach to couple therapy, EFT works to help partners rekindle feelings of love, connection, security, and happiness. The goal is reconnection. I also utilize Brainspotting, one of the new generation therapies, to promote a more rapid and deeper processing, integration and healing from a variety of psychological problems.

I offer compassion-based therapy including Brainspotting, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindful Self-Compassion. These are proven ways to help us make meaningful changes in our lives. I believe that we all have the skills and strengths needed to heal and make positive changes in our lives. Therapy can help us access these parts of ourselves and give us strength to create meaningful change.

Hello, I am an experienced professional Psychotherapist trained in Brainspotting Phase 2, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Brainspotting locates points in the visual field that help to access trauma, anxiety, depression or behavioral problems that are held in the subcortical brain. This therapy allows the brain to process from the inside out and from the bottom up. This helps client's breakthrough into whole new levels of performing, healing, and wellbeing.

My approach centers on the mind-body connection. My goal is to facilitate deep healing with psychosomatic therapy. Through interpersonal and systemic traumas, unmet needs throughout life, and generally overwhelming situations, disconnection and an inability to cope can arise. Using approaches, like IFS and Brainspotting, we will work together to process emotions and distress and increase your ability to be present in your life. Through an attuned presence and your mindful awareness in therapy, you can engage in healing and connection to yourself and the world around you.

As a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker fluent in both English and Spanish, I specialize in supporting individuals through the complexities of mental health, particularly those navigating the impacts of trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and difficult life transitions. My expertise extends to working with diverse individuals, offering a culturally sensitive and understanding approach.

I am a certified Licensed Clinical Therapist with more than 20 years' experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in both one-on-one and group settings. As a compassionate therapist, I use a personalized approach to establish your treatment plan so you can attain a healthy, balanced lifestyle. As every person and situation is unique, my mission is to help you use your own inner strengths to define your journey, and reach your goals.

Recovery. Healing. Rest. Balance. Empowerment. Connection. Purpose. Hope. Just pause for a moment and ask yourself which of those words resonates with you? What are you wanting out of life right now? I think you desire something different but may not know how to achieve this on your own. Whether its for mental, physical, emotional, or spiritual issues, therapy can help. By working together, we will create a plan so you can feel empowered to navigate the complexities of your life experiences and achieve the peace of mind and the balance you are looking for.

We all seek a life that is fulfilling and meaningful, but sometimes during our life's journey, we can come to feel disconnected from that source of meaning. Perhaps the stress and responsibilities of life become overwhelming, and what is meaningful gets lost in the busyness. Maybe a life event occurs (trauma/illness/death/divorce/etc.) that causes us to reevaluate everything we thought to be true. Maybe our relationships or our roles in life begin to shift making us question "What now?" My honor as a therapist is to walk with you as you rekindle that connection and create a life that intentionally honors what matters most to you.

My real passion is in helping my clients step into their own power. I focus holistically on the whole person, which includes the mind, body, spirit and emotion. I believe that all 4 areas are needed to fully heal. I use a variety of holistic and alternative experiential practices to assist in accelerating one's healing process. Through this approach individuals are able to shift out of old patterning, self-limiting beliefs, thoughts, and habits. I am able to help one get to the deeper core issues that are blocking them from living a full and happy life.

My therapeutic philosophy is that it's not what is wrong with you but what happened to you. I believe that symptoms like anxiety and depression are not signs of weakness but messages to our mind and body telling us that something is not right and needs to be addressed. Maladaptive ways of coping may have once served us by dulling stress or pain but are not working any more, and so we have to learn new, healthier, more adaptive coping skills. I believe both the body and mind work together and are ultimately designed to survive, heal and thrive. Sometimes we just need understanding, validation and support to navigate the process.

I specialize in working with clients who are overwhelmed with life’s challenges and tend to shut down. I help my clients understand their triggers and find new coping, hope, and healing. Together we will develop new ways to react to life’s challenges. I will help you practice skills to get you unstuck and on the path to living the life you want.
