Do you feel stuck in the past? Perhaps you're telling yourself a story about the world that no longer resonates, but it's still hard to shake. Maybe you're reckoning with your identity/ies in various ways, and need a guide and witness to help make space for your evolution. Using a trauma informed, body-centric approach, I can help you access tools already within yourself to live a more vibrant authentic life.

Feeling lost, overwhelmed and stuck in repetitive patterns can happen to anyone. Sometimes just having the space to name how you feel can really start a process of change. I am compassionate, collaborative, and creative. I work with you at your pace to build insights and awareness into your experiences in order to make choices using talk therapy and art therapy.

My style is loving, non-judgmental, and creative. My role is to help empower you to change. I do this by uncovering unconscious mechanisms that drive your current issues. Unconscious material comes into focus by our discussing your past relationships and life events. You will take an active role in therapy by looking inward. As your therapist I will assist you by promoting honesty, self-compassion, and self-acceptance in order for you to connect with your authentic self to come into your natural state of well-being.

All too often struggles deplete our energy and leave us feeling down on ourselves. Through rigorous conversation and a highly supportive relationship, I help people gain the clarity and confidence needed to produce desired change. I have extensive training in postmodern therapies, which examine how dominant cultural discourses can have oppressive effects on our lives, identities, and relationships. Prior to working in private practice, I was part of UCLA's network, where I brought social justice aims to integrative models of mental health. I have many years of experience working with couples, families, youth, and adults.

We live in a hectic and chaotic world. Sometimes the tools we have just stop cutting it. Everything is suddenly a struggle. You may have been to a bunch of therapists and it didn't work. You may never have been to therapy and you just want to figure out how to feel better. You’re not alone, you’re not “crazy”. I can help. I'm a non binary, queer, AuDHD clinician who practices from a sex positive, trauma informed perspective and comes with an impressive list of trainings and certifications, but more importantly, I'm a regular human who's here to connect with you on a genuine and authentic level.

We might work well together if you: are a young professional; a perfectionist; struggle with burnout and prioritizing yourself; have experienced trauma. If you're walking through a faith transition or struggling to reconcile your faith with your LGBTQ+ identity, I'm here to help you navigate that. I also know the importance of going back to the body and emotions. Staying in your intellect probably hasn't healed your trauma (although it's certainly kept you safe), so why not change the channel? As a Certified EMDR Therapist and Consultant in Training, I'm very comfortable helping you figure out which channel has the best service.

The best advice I ever received about practicing psychotherapy was, “be a human first and a therapist second." To this day, I hold this sentiment in mind while sitting with my clients. While my approach is informed by robust training, I ultimately hold the view that you are the expert on your own life. I utilize our relationship to help you develop a stronger, more truthful relationship with yourself. From a place of deep awareness, you will feel more empowered to make choices that are right for you, more congruence, connection, and authenticity in your life, more freedom from what burdens you, and more control over your own story.

I identify as a queer, femme, Chicana therapist. I provide Psychotherapy that is Intersectional and Trauma-informed treatment. Combining techniques of traditional Psychodynamic Therapy as well as Somatic Therapy together we investigate your past and what is happening currently in your body (physical pain, ailments, sensations) in relation to environmental triggers (systemic racism, queer & trans-phobia, sexism, micro-aggressions), as well as attachment styles that inform your core beliefs to get you to a place of a fully developed and embodied sense of self and well being.

I believe that each of our lives is an ecosystem, comprised of the interconnecting forces that influence our well-being. This includes our relationships with other people, with cultural and economic forces and even our own bodies. When we are out of balance or suffer trauma, we are often left feeling anxious, depressed or lost. Could you use an ally in making the "ecosystem" of your life more healthy and vibrant? I provide therapy for adults, children, couples, intimate partners and groups.

As humans, we experience moments of difficulty. Whether that be navigating personal relationships or witnessing collective community distress, we can feel hopeless, out of control, anxious, grief, and exhausted. These struggles may lead to disconnection in relationships, low motivation, and difficulty focusing. Sometimes it is too much to carry on our own and we need support. As a Queer and Latinx identifying therapist, I offer an inclusive and judgment-free space for children, teens, couples and families to navigate these issues, and am especially passionate about working with the LGBTQIA+, gender expansive, and Latinx communities.

Therapy is a deeply personal, multifaceted journey inward in an already complex world. To those who choose to venture down this road, the process can leave one feeling emotional and vulnerable, but it will also be healing, enlightening and enriching. Taking steps down this path is a virtuous act and I am here to honor you and your process. Together we will gently explore what may be causing you pain. Healing is at the heart of my practice - what you will experience with me is empathy, non-judgmental compassion, and authenticity. My therapeutic style is warm, energetic and engaged.

Growing up, I have realized that there is a lack of communication, representation, and awareness of the importance of mental health in many Middle-Eastern, Latinx, and Asian households. This leads to many individuals in those cultures becoming oppressed throughout their whole life and experiencing many untreated phases of depression and anxiety without having the opportunity to be heard.

My approach to therapy is rooted in the power of healing-in-relationship and the engagement of our whole selves in that process. For those interested, my background as a Registered Dance/Movement Therapist allows for utilizing the body, art, and play as a few of the key instruments in the healing journey, alongside traditional talk therapy practices. My theoretical orientation is also integrative of psychodynamic theories, existential theory, mindfulness, interpersonal neurobiology, attachment theory, and internal family systems.
