Are you exhausted from being "la que lo puede" todo? You have been working so hard to please your family, and still getting the guilt trips for trying to mandarte sola and lead your own life. And to top it off, constantly being reminded del sacrificio that they made for you (insert intergenerational trauma, perfectionism, and anxiety here). You deserve comfort and support tailored to first gen Latinas.
If you are looking for a therapist that looks like you, gets your cultural references and speaks Spanish, you've found the right place! Hola amiga and welcome to Cafe de Olla Therapy. A place where first gen Latinas going through stress, depression, anxiety, life transitions, inter-generational traumas, and relationship problems can feel seen and heard.
Cafe de Olla Therapy was born out of love, little sneaks of cafecito from my Tito (abuelito), my Mexican roots, y lo agusto que te sientes when you drink your cafecito. You deserve to have a therapist that gets you and your Latina background. The last thing you need to do right now is explain your culture on top of everything else you have experienced.

In therapy with me you can experience Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. You can tell me what is going on for you using a recent example and I will help you trace it back to when this issue began for you. We will work through this issue until you feel better and it doesn't feel bad anymore.
