(**Hablo español) Making the decision to begin therapy is not an easy task. With your best interest in mind, I strive to provide a trusting, safe, and supportive environment.

Life can be messy, to say the least, and sometimes we need a non-biased person in our lives to help. I strive to provide a supportive safe space for individuals who are seeking to make the steps towards their mental health and overall well-being. With my humanistic client-centered approach, we will externalize the problem(s) and work together to find solutions to not only cope but thrive in our environment. I aim to understand each person’s unique experiences and challenges that enter their life and collaborate with them to develop personalized strategies for growth and healing.

Welcome, you are taking the first step in your healing process. You may be experiencing situations that may be overwhelming and may be creating daily life function. You may be noticing patterns that continue to perpetuate thoughts and emotions that can be difficult to understand and manage. In therapy, we can work together in identifying and understanding the “origen” of our patterns and work towards embracing growth, healing, and change. I believe therapy should be a safe space to process your emotions and thoughts without feeling judged and I aim to create a safe and trusting therapeutic space to facilitate growth and healing.

Welcome! I’m a Spanish speaking sex-positive therapist, here to support in dismantling negative sex tropes upheld by society.

Let’s eradicate long-standing negative attitudes towards sex and body for a more fulfilling, meaningful life and elevate your strengths, develop coping skills and open a space for you to feel authentic, safe, and empowered.

I see psychotherapy as a collaborative process in which everyone has the potential to find their own solutions and make positive changes but may just need some guidance. Whether your therapy goal is to learn how to better cope with relationship issues, life transitions, grief/loss, or even thoughts of self-harm, I can assist and walk with you on that journey. I have a special interest in working with the emotional aspects of women's health issues such as difficulty conceiving as well as perinatal/postpartum depression and anxiety.

I understand it may be challenging to talk to a stranger about your personal life. Therapy may be a bit intimidating if you are just starting off or you are continuing with a new therapist.

As a certified (IAAP) Jungian analyst I have a passion to work with three specific groups: 1. Men and women, aged 35 - 65, who are experiencing a Mid - Life Crises/Transition, often accompanied by depression and anxiety, and a loss of meaning in life. 2. Young men and women, aged 19 - 34, who are experiencing a "Quarter Life Crises," searching for a more soulful life in work, relationships and beyond. 3. Therapists who want to incorporate Jungian analysis and dream work into their practices, and also those who may want to enter training to become a Jungian analyst. .

Are you feeling stuck? Life is getting too much? Transitions can be difficult, but it doesn’t have to be. The present can give you gifts of encouragement. As a therapist, I try to meet people where they are at in their journey. My ideal client is someone who wants to learn more about themselves, is ready to make positive changes, and are open to new perspectives. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which my sessions are guided by your goals, concerns, and readiness for change. I look forward to meeting you!

You know yourself better than anyone. You know your challenges, your situation, your relationships...of course you do, you're the one living it.

That makes sense. I know it might be hard to see this right now, but there is hope. This fear and discomfort you are feeling could become the push you need to make those new changes you've been thinking about...
