As a First Gen Latina, I can wholeheartedly relate to and understand several First Gen dynamics. I enjoy working with BIPOC, First Generation Latine, and Second Generation Latine. I specialize in working with people who are: healing generational trauma and breaking cycles, navigating challenging relationships with their loved ones, feeling exhausted of being the black sheep of the family and/or the responsible go to one of the family, struggling to honor their voice and needs, navigating stress and life changes, and wanting and needing a more spiritual and decolonized approach in therapy.
Our work will be collaborative and consensual. Yes, I am a therapist but you know yourself best. I am here to support you, offer you different perspectives and tools, have candid conversations, and walk along your side as you navigate life lifing.
I am a Healer before I am a therapist so I center my Ancestral wisdom, training in internal family systems (IFS), and sprinkle in various modalities as there is no such thing as a one size fits all approach in healing. If this sounds like the support and healing space you’re looking for, please feel free to reach out.
