I’m devoted to helping people figure out how they feel—and what to do—about what matters most in their lives. My job is to accept and support you as you are, without judgment. I want to understand your world as YOU see it. I'll listen to the stories you carry around in your head, and whether they're kind, whether they serve or oppress you.

Would you like to know yourself better and more deeply? To be able to move beyond painful or frustrating patterns in your feelings, relationships, and work? Sometimes it's clear why we feel and act how we do: ecstatic about a new romance, upset about a professional disappointment, awash with grief following the loss of a loved one. Other times your feelings and behaviors may surprise you—a nagging anxiety, a lingering sadness, memories of past experiences that you thought you'd left behind, a sense that your relationship with a partner could be deeper, or that work could be more fulfilling even as you have success along the way.

My approach consists of assisting people in identifying and exploring the stressors, issues, or losses that are causing pain, in order to begin to address them. I have a warm, direct communication style and will support you in developing a practice of self-care and self-reflection, while also implementing practical solutions, and coping skills. Building a healthy curiosity about your behavior, thoughts, and feelings will be encouraged in order to achieve a better understanding of the conscious and unconscious influences that perpetuate difficulties and conflicts. Deepening a self-understanding strengthens an ability to build healthier, more satisfying relationships with others and with yourself.

As a depth psychotherapist, I am deeply committed to helping individuals explore the underlying currents of their inner world. I believe that true healing involves delving beyond surface-level symptoms to uncover the unconscious patterns of belief and emotion that shape our experience. My approach is rooted in the principles of depth psychology, emphasizing the importance of understanding the psyche's complex layers and the transformative power of bringing the unconscious to consciousness.

I use many different interventions such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy , Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused and Expressive arts.
Therapy is a collaboration. I am present and relational in my work. I believe each person is innately their own expert and I am here to help that person tap into their own truths. I get to know you from a place of non-judgement. I listen to what symptoms are troubling you and will teach you skills to help relieve the suffering. Together we develop short term goals that build upon the strengths that you may have temporarily not been able to see. The long term goal is not to be in therapy forever, but for you to have the tools to thrive in your life!

My clinical approach is relational and existential; when dealing with more severe clinical issues, I use CBT/DBT and EMDR.
We all go through difficult times at some point in our lives. How we adjust, cope, and learn from these experiences will help us regain the sense of empowerment, inspiration and resilience to endure the many stages in life. Todos pasamos por momentos dificiles en nuestras vidas, pero el como nos ajustamos y lo que aprendemos de esas experiencias, es lo que nos ayudara a volver a sentir la capacidad, inspiracion y fortaleza para sobrellevar las diferentes etapas de nuestra vida.
