My approach to psychotherapy is founded on the belief that all people carry inherent worth and value. I take a holistic view of clients, people are multidimensional, and every aspect, biological, psychological, social, and spiritual, play a role in subjective well-being. I rely upon the perspective that clients are the experts of their lives, which is invaluable in tailoring my approach specific to you. I believe strongly that no one has a monopoly on normality. The nuanced approach I take for every client is rooted in my belief that every person is unique and deserves an approach tailored specifically to them.

Originally from Venezuela, I am a mental health professional with years of experience providing psychotherapy in both private and public clinical settings. Throughout my experience, I strongly believe in the importance of adapting approaches to the needs of clients, and understand that a strong therapeutic relationship is essential for guiding you towards your healing. That being said, I practice using an eclectic approach, drawing on the philosophies and techniques of various modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy, and Mindfulness.

Do you ever struggle with feeling disconnected from others or even yourself? Do you ever think that life should be easier? Do you ever feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, lost due to the pressure to live up to other people's standards, or to just get through the day? Do you ever question, wonder, or hope that things could be better? So many people are feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, & anxious about how to manage their careers, relationships, and lives. Neglecting your own needs and not taking time for yourself often leads to difficulties for both your mind and body. I believe that it shouldn't be so hard to live a better life.

Trauma, much like a splinter, embeds itself into a person and affects all aspects of life. My primary objective is to create a safe and compassionate therapeutic alliance which facilitates healing and growth. With Trauma, I truly believe that the body holds a great deal of the emotional weight, without us knowing. I witnessed severe difficulties in my community, and as an adult I have grieved many friends who kept their suffering a secret, often until it was too late. I truly believe that every individual innately harbors the right set of tools to achieve their personal goals and find their way to a meaningful, fulfilling life.

Are you stuck in a loop of anxiety, negative thinking, emotional turmoil and/or self sabotaging behaviours? Are you tired of suffering, and feeling overwhelmed, and powerless? Do you feel the need for a real solution but have been frustrated by limited or superficial approaches when you have tried therapy before? Through my experience in treating thousands of clients I’ve discovered what is most effective in solving problems and just as importantly, how to help my clients understand themselves and the root of their problem. I empower them with effective tools and insights so they can also coach themselves as they move forward.

As we move through life, we inevitably run into issues that are difficult to navigate, such as trouble with a boss, spouse / partner, or a struggle with anxiety, depression, or stress. We try our best to solve these issues ourselves. Sometimes, no matter what we try, we can feel as if we are 'banging our head against a wall'. These times can be frustrating, tiring, and scary. At these moments, a helping hand and another perspective may be welcome. I have provided this support to individuals, couples and families since 2000. I would be honoured to partner with you.
