Thank you for considering me as your therapist! I offer counselling and psychotherapy to individual adults. I believe that therapy, as a healing space, is also an interactive phenomenon that has a powerful effect when expectations are clear. I am originally from Cuba. My theoretical orientation is eclectic with an emphasis on Cognitive-Behavioral as well as Jungian approaches. My aim in therapy is to help individuals reach out into the strongest versions of themselves.

The integrative model includes HeartMath, psychodynamic, Jungian, transpersonal, therapeutic arts, Logotherapy & Existential Analysis, parts work, and Brainspotting.
Feeling grief, disconnection, sadness? Do you feel like you don’t know who you are anymore? Do you show up for others, but do not know how to meet your needs? The grief of losing your sense of self results from going through loss and trauma. One’s identity is comprised of their experiences, relationships, and beliefs/values. When an interruption or loss occurs in any of these areas, it shakes up one’s sense of self, self worth/confidence, and access to emotions of joy, calm, and love. I can support you in re-establishing a connection to self through self-discovery alongside processing the experiences of grief and trauma.

I am a bilingual Jungian Analyst, Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor.
I work with individual adults who are facing a variety of life challenges.I believe that hidden in our problems lie the seeds of a solution as well as some bit of undeveloped personality with potential for personal transformation. Knowing that in times of distress it's good to talk things over with someone, I listen carefully and work collaboratively with my clients. Images from the unconscious, as seen in dreams and drawings, can help us uncover a problem and develop a solution. Dreams are material from the unconscious and bring us into contact with a deeper part of ourselves.

We’ll create a plan based on your needs and input, and I’ll use various methods such as metacognitive, jungian, and existential therapies.
Experiencing a bipolar or psychotic episode is often disorienting and frightening. Racing thoughts, intense emotions, and confusion over reality can leave you feeling lost and vulnerable. You’re not sure how to cope or go about your day. You may not even know where to go from here. The aftermath of an episode or inpatient treatment can be just as challenging as the onset of symptoms. It feels overwhelming grappling with uncertainty, shame, and trying to rebuild your sense of self and daily life. When all of this is combined with anxiety, depression, or addiction, it’s not uncommon to feel at a loss for how to get through the day.

The analytical journey often begins when a person experiences an extremely challenging time in his/her/their life, does not know what to do, and feels stuck. Jungian analysis is an opportunity for him/her/them to work on his/her/their problems and emotions by talking with a trusted and qualified professional who listens attentively and assists him/her/them in exploring a personal inner path for healing. It is deep soul and spiritual work. The weekly analytic hour is an opportunity to address that by exploring a person's inner and outer life, while focusing on unconscious personal and collective material, especially symbolically.

What if underneath day to day challenges lies an opportunity to understand yourself better? As we go through life, we must adapt to the demands of our environment, sometimes at the expense of our innate nature. This phenomenon may result in developing discomforts (such as anxiety and depression). Exploring the psyche provides an opportunity to re-enter into relation with all the aspects of our psyche, towards harmony with oneself and others.

Life can definitely become very challenging and everyone needs help along the way. I believe that when we can connect to our innermost selves, accept life’s challenges with grace, and treat ourselves and others with compassion and care, we can all live rich, meaningful lives. I know that we can and do recover from grief, mental illness, addiction, trauma, and all the hurts that life can throw at us.

How does Jungian therapy work?

Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.

How long does Jungian therapy last?

Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.

Is Jungian therapy effective?

According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.

Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?

Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
