I create a safe place for you to engage in your own personal healing process as you learn how to better align with yourself.

Using compassionate care, empathy, sensitivity, gentleness, and a strengths-based approach, I strive to create a warm and comfortable environment for clients to engage in their healing, growth, and change processes. I assist clients in exploring the context, history, and life experiences that contribute to their presenting concerns in order for clients to experience self-transformation.

“We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.”-Maya Angelou. At a young age, I knew that I wanted to help others. Throughout the years, my passion has grown and my desire to show kindness on this planet has intensified.

Since 1999, my practice has been guided by a deep belief in the transformative power of understanding our childhood experiences to improve how we think and behave as adults. By exploring and gaining insight into these foundational experiences, we can challenge and update the beliefs that no longer serve us, facilitating personal growth and healthier relationships. I specialize in an integrative therapeutic approach, combining Internal Family Systems (IFS) with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), alongside other targeted interventions like letter writing and psychodynamic therapy.

I enjoy working with clients who are ready for change and desire to learn and break generations of trauma. My goal is to serve mi gente. We come from a long line of "echale ganas," but don't stir the pot. This can be both confusing and exhausting. I help individuals heal generational trauma and childhood wounds. Healing these traumas and wounds will allow individuals and generations to live authentically. A life rich in confidence, culture, and abundance. I use a Faith-Based Perspective where my beliefs are not forced on anyone. Allowing God to work through me to help fill you with strength, love, and courage.

I help high achievers and people-pleasers overcome feeling unappreciated and disconnected. Sometimes it feels impossible to turn your attention away from others. You wish the dread of disappointing them would just go away. The constant predicting - and the fear of someone getting angry with you - can make every day nearly impossible to navigate. You wonder how much longer you can hold back your feelings of going unappreciated until the hostility takes over.

Creating changes in our lives can often feel overwhelming and it is difficult to know where to start! I enjoy working with clients who recognize things in their lives aren’t working the way they expected or needed and are willing to look for ways to change their experience. I believe that we need to look inside ourselves to see if how we think about our own selves can impact our our views of life experiences and relationships. Look inward can often feel scary and I’m honored when clients allow me to share in that exploration with them.

Hello, I'm Lunda! Thank you for your time. I have always been curious about what motivates a person. I have had my license for over 30 years and have worked in psychology, education, and business. I am a widow with two teenagers and love working on puzzles and being around animals. Feel free to contact me or leave me a message. I look forward to working with you soon!

My warm and inviting personality allows me to connect easily with my clients, and I offer a whole range of science-based, therapeutic strategies to assist kids with learning new ways of handling their strong emotions.

My clients seek psychotherapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, lost, or even a profound sense of emptiness. This might be about a number of things; job stress, day-to-day life, transition, adjustment, loss, identity issues, cultural conflicts, physical health, relational difficulties, trauma, or long-standing issues. They also come with a variety of goals; learning better communication skills, feeling more wholesome, gaining a deeper self-understanding, wanting to regain a sense of control, processing painful aspects of their lives, making changes, or simply to feel heard and deeply understood.

My passion is to help people, by listening and by working together to find practical solutions, I would never judge or impose my views but I would always empathize and try to understand the situation. I am bi-lingual and bi-cultural with a vast experience treating families, couples and adolescents. My goal is to always have a "good session" and for you to come out encouraged and empowered.

If you feel overwhelmed or lost, therapy can lead you to a better path and healthier future. Many people struggle for years before asking for help.

I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients who have decided to make the commitment to work towards positive change in their lives. My hope is to join you in the process to encourage you towards restoration and healing. I consider myself a person who is committed and passionate. I am ready to journey with you on this endeavor to increase your well being.
