From the outside, you seem to have it all. You are highly accomplished, driven, and reliable. You have what others call a “successful life,” but the truth is you don’t feel the same on the inside. You always worry about the worst things that can happen. Your thoughts deplete & deprive you of joy. You try to keep it all together, but despite your best efforts, thoughts leave you feeling exhausted, unable to focus, and unmotivated and snap at the people you love. You have given so much to everyone, and your needs always come last. Not anymore. You are finally ready to go from merely existing to flourishing.

Hi, I’m Dr. Cabrera. I specialize in helping working women who are struggling with anxiety and depression. Too many women experience waves of sadness, racing thoughts that seem uncontrollable, and disrupted sleep. On top of that, some may feel a sense of isolation and loneliness or the overwhelming sensation that they can't cope with the challenges of the day. These emotions are frequently linked to anxiety and depression. The encouraging news, however, is that you don’t have to keep living perpetually trapped by these feelings. There is effective treatment available!
