As a Latina mujer, I understand the importance of feeling heard, understood, and seen in a therapeutic space that embraces all of who you are. Therefore, to be able to provide a culturally sensitive space for my clients is important for me because I understand that cultural backgrounds and generational factors play a role on our mental health. I have experience working with individuals who have anxiety, depression, trauma, intergenerational issues, interpersonal issues, and others.

Throughout my life, I have become passionate about the healing work of therapy. The human experience is complex, challenging and sometimes painful. I believe through the therapeutic process you can connect deeply with yourself in a way that results in healthier relationships in your life. Dependent upon each client's needs, I develop a customized approach drawing from the following theories: relational psychodynamic, person centered, trauma informed, narrative, CBT, IFS/Parts Work, mindfulness, and somatic. I believe that we are never finished growing and evolving as human beings.

Nothing seems to be working, as the day’s pass you noticed a disconnect. The relationship is becoming unfamiliar. Your partner no longer feels like your partner. Arguments are more common than compliments and toxic exchanges seem like the norm these days. The stress is starting to affect other aspects of your life. The relationship with yourself seems more like a distant memory. You could use a vent session with someone who gets it. whether you're arguing more with your partner or constantly yelling at the kids. Do you find yourself wondering what happened to the laughter and love? Where did the relationships take a detour?

When viewing therapy as a journey, clients are the one who take the steps and therapists are there to walk alongside them. While on their own journeys, children, adolescents and young adults are striving to develop their distinct sense of self and establish meaningful relationships with those around them. Supporting your child/teen comes with its own set of stressors that can lead you to feel unsure of what to do next. I believe that our childhood experiences impact how we connect and relate with others as adults. Trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, grief and other life stressors can deeply impact how we make meaning.

I believe the central purpose of counseling is to assist the clients I work with in identifying their own unique abilities and tools to cope with the hurdles and challenges that life brings. Each individual has the capacity to make change happen to support well being; heal from trauma and identify new coping skills. My goal is to provide a safe space for individuals to work through traumatic or difficult life experiences while helping to cultivate new avenues to overcome the things that can keep one feeling "stuck". My approach in counseling is collaborative, holistic, strength based and client centered.

If you’re looking for a therapist who won’t just nod their head and say, “Uh-huh”, or else ask, “How did that make you feel?”, then I’m the right fit for you! My approach is to listen, ask questions, and then work with you to come up with a plan for what you want to get out of our sessions together, and how I’m going to help you accomplish your goals. I believe in being caring and supportive when you’re hurting, challenging when you’re “coasting”, and “working myself out of a job” (i.e., when you’re satisfied with the progress you’ve made).

Supervision available. I offer an Afrocentric view of psychotherapy coupled with honesty, humor, and compassion. I believe in the potential to coexist with the events of the past while fueling the future. Bruised Not Broken Therapy was born from the lack of Afrocentric-based psychotherapy that allowed people of color to embrace their life journey through the context of color. HIV, substance abuse, mental health, and the denial of the everyday experience of being a person of color continue to plague communities of color, as we still have yet to discuss these experiences.

Families often times need help understanding each other and feeling heard, and need direction and support in getting there.

I help in all areas of understanding and feeling heard.
