I have been providing mental health services for over 30 years. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults (18- 65+) in inpatient and outpatient agencies in California, Washinton state, and Las Vegas. I am Mexican American bilingual and bicultural and have been privileged to work with that population since working in San Diego. I am always learning and seeking new more current modalities to give each patient individualized treatment. I am very excited to learn more about the Neuropsychic studies and how learning more how the brain systems interactions result in mental and emotional disfunction.

I believe the two major problem areas we face in life deal with our relationships and our coping; and the main factors influencing how we manage these issues relies on our attachment style, trauma history, and our emotional intelligence, or lack there-of. My job is to help unlock the unconscious- help bring awareness to these issues and how they may be negatively impacting your life and relationships. Essentially, my aim is to assist you in identifying and allowing yourself to express emotions, and learn to tolerate/manage anxiety and discomfort, rather than self-soothe in various, unsafe ways that are causing problems in your life.

My name is Esperanza Sanchez. I am the daughter of Mexican immigrants. I am an Adult Child of an Alcoholic (dad). My mom lost herself in caretaking her husband and 8 children. This family chaos and emotional emptiness led me to help others like myself. When we grow up without safety, protection, boundaries, guidance we have to figure It out on our own. What the hell do we know?! But we sort of figure it out; graduating from school, college, become professionally successful but we can't shake IT off. . . heart racing, mind racing, the negative voice: "que pendeja eres" (you're so stupid), "tu no puedes. . .

I believe in working with children, teens, and adults through a combination of guidance and direction. Therapy can involve relieving stress in family relationships and improvement in overall quality of life for those in treatment. A lot of time and energy are spent with all other aspects in life, why wouldn't we invest growth and enrichment with our loved ones?
