To give you the tools to resolve your life challenges/problems is one of my goals. I can help you to find and expand your internal resources, and to create the lasting, positive changes that you are looking for. I provide a supportive, nurturing environment for your safety and comfort. I specialize in depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, trauma and more. I love working with adolescents to help them resolve issues and make the right choices. For couples, we work to create a safe space, good communication, problem solving, balance, love and intimacy. I have ample experience working with spiritual issues upon request.
I can help you to regulate your emotions, increase your self esteem, learn assertiveness skills, to resolve social and interpersonal difficulties. and find a balance to think, act, feel and be well. I use a proactive, integrative, approach and use many techniques including: cognitive-behavior therapy, energy psychology, Brainspotting, and EMDR among others
I am bicultural, and work in English and Spanish. I specialize in interpersonal relationships, and ethnic and cultural diversity. Each session is a unique opportunity to meet life's challenges and find peace, happiness and harmony. The physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual aspects are included in my holistic approach.
