Change can be uncomfortable and scary, especially when it is necessary for personal development and growth. It can feel as if you’re going through the waves alone, but everyone deserves to be heard, seen, and supported. While I believe that these emotions deserve a safe space to be expressed, I also believe that this process should be worked on collaboratively. The therapeutic relationship is a crucial component in my work as a mental health provider, and I recognize the privilege I have of holding your trust with honor.

You deserve a healthy relationship with yourself and others. Perhaps anxious or unhelpful thoughts are getting in the way. I believe that we are all adaptable and resilient and sometimes our usual coping skills don't work as well as we'd like them to.

My way of doing therapy involves insight-oriented exploration and problem solving, and an invitation to make deeper contact with core issues and inner healing potential via somatic experience and "parts work." I'm trained as an IFS therapist and can be an especially good fit for those with established mindfulness practices and an ability to tune into inner experience. While working with me you may find yourself looking at problems in a new way, with more curiosity and self compassion. Less judgement.

My goal is to provide each client with an emotionally safe environment where they feel comfortable exploring even the biggest challenges, whether it is how to manage overwhelming emotions such as anxiety or depression, rebuild a more honest sense of identity, learn to recognize and fight unhealthy or toxic patterns in life & relationships, confront past trauma or abuse, or other flavors of struggle. Many of my clients battle mood disorders, daunting life transitions, relationship issues, as well as cultural issues, LGBTQ integration struggles, grief/loss, trauma, & body image discomfort/disordered eating.

I believe that the beginning of a person’s healing journey starts with creating a safe, collaborative, and supportive therapeutic space that can pave the way toward restorative growth. The foundation of my therapeutic work stems from understanding how life experiences and everyday stressors impact how we engage with the world. With an intentional focus on individuals’ stories, I use tools that aid in bottom-up trauma processing, including EMDR, through a relational approach, building greater awareness and insight.

Therapy is scary, but it doesn't have to be. As a Queer Latinx therapist, I've been where you're at right now, looking to make sense of how you feel, looking for guidance and healing. I have worked alongside and supported individuals with complexities in their lives that have chronic stress, anxiety, and depression, as well as individuals that have been affected by violence in or outside of their home, and those who have been greatly impacted by generational trauma, and community violence. My approach is to meet you where you're at and set goals together to meet your needs.

The human experience can bring many seasons of immense pain, uncertainty and heartache, but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

Therapy is a pathway to peace of mind and personal growth. I foster a supportive, nonjudgmental, warm, and empathic therapeutic environment conducive to openly discussing and navigating issues standing in the way of desired change. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I specialize in the treatment of mood-related struggles, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief and loss, self-esteem issues, and difficulty adjusting to life transitions. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices that develop existing strengths and coping skills, promote healthier relationships, and empower people to achieve meaningful growth in their lives.

Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming. You probably sense that it’s finally time to reach out for help, but feel unsure of where to begin. Perhaps you feel uncertain if there is anyone out there who can understand, let alone help. I believe that the strength of the therapeutic relationship directly impacts an individual’s capacity for change. So my first priority is to cultivate a safe, open, and compassionate relationship with each of my clients. My style of therapy is supportive, lively, and direct. My goal is to help you learn to trust yourself and feel less weighed down by self doubt.

I deeply enjoy challenging and deconstructing all flavors of shame and taboo. I work with clients to notice, give attention, and slow down when our culture encourages us to ignore, distract, and speed up. By thoughtfully exploring family patterns and our ways of being in relationship, we can come to intriguing conclusions about ourselves and others. I work with people ages 17+, and I see clients individually, as families, as sibling groups, and in all configurations of romantic relationships.
