| español In life, we all go through difficult moments where we need to reinvent ourselves. Life’s circumstances often force us to question our self-esteem, confidence, and what we think of ourselves. Understanding how we feel is not an easy task, sometimes we get confused, and we may know something needs to change but don’t know how to do it. However, everything is easier when we seek professional help that can do what the people around us cannot, which is: listen non-judgmentally, understand our issues, challenge with respect, and guide us in dealing with our problems easier.
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, low self-esteem, self-doubt, anxiety, depression, alcohol use, grief, parenting, and relationships issues (jealousy, mistrust, defensiveness, and lack of communication).
Therapy is a collaborative process; we will work together to achieve your goals. I can help you understand the deeper roots of your symptoms and life patterns. In therapy, you are the expert, and I’ll be on your side, collaborating with you, helping you understand your own emotions, listening to your strengths, and watching for obstacles.
