The challenge of overcoming a personal trauma may seem overwhelming in itself; The additional burden of navigating a chaotic and sometimes harsh world may make healing feel impossible. I understand the importance of addressing the intersection of both the person and environment. As a queer, non-binary, first-generation Latinx therapist, I bring a compassionate and affirming approach to our therapeutic journey. I approach therapy with humor and kindness, honoring and empowering your voice, while gently challenging any patterns you may be stuck in.

Many people seek therapy when they feel overwhelmed with new or unexpected life stressors, or when they feel stuck or controlled by their thoughts and feelings. Sometimes we focus so much on being happy, but paradoxically experience happiness as elusive. I work collaboratively with adult clients to change their relationships with their thoughts and feelings, regain control over their actions, and lead meaningful lives. I encourage conversations about identity, oppression, and privilege with my clients, as therapy can be an important space to address the effects of racism, sexism, heterosexism, classism, and ableism on our lives.

My philosophy on therapy is based on the power of introspection, understanding our relationships with others, and the knowledge that we all have the capacity to make changes in our lives. My belief is that my role as a therapist is to help you explore yourself in the setting of a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment. I will help you understand yourself better in the context of all of your relationships both past and present, and we will work together to help you make the changes you seek in life. Most importantly, I want to help you find a sense of peace in becoming your most authentic self.

As social beings, our relationships with others, the world, & ourselves are what give our lives meaning. When we feel disconnected from these parts, we're wired to feel absolute despair. Though powerful, I'm confident that this uniquely human sort of suffering can be disarmed by discovering connection & purpose in our lives- & I seek to help you develop the tools you need to do so. I'm passionate about helping people navigate trauma, addiction, anxiety, relationship turmoil, LGBTQIA+ identity, & self-esteem, among other issues. I blend insight-driven “talk therapy” with mindfulness & emotional regulation practices.

For me, being a therapist means being a collaborative partner with clients. My primary goal is to establish genuine relationships with others in order to undo aloneness and create safety. I aim to join people as they explore, navigate, and make meaning of the challenges and joys that they experience. Throughout this journey, I support them in discovering their most authentic selves by facilitating connection to their core emotions. I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan, and connect well with those who are feeling stuck in symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship/familial conflict, and identity formation.

I am here to help you connect to your body & feel your wholeness. Hi, my name is Vee. I’m a Holistic Psychotherapist & it'd be my joy to support you in reaching your mind-body-spirit-soul & relationship goals!

I work with clients (individuals and couples) seeking therapeutic support regarding relationship goals, and have specific training in intimacy challenges and how previous experiences affect our current relationships. I bring a sensitive therapeutic approach and utilize various methods to provide my clients with strategies and tools for understanding themselves. I create a safe and supportive space for non-judgmental and reflective growth. I feel that successful therapy involves identifying and bridging gaps between where we are and where we want to be.

How would you describe yourself and your life right now? Maybe you have very clear vision of the changes you would like to make in your life, but you don't know how to get there. Or you might just know that something is off/not right and it's hard to know what that is, much less know how to address it. Either way, what you do know is that you'd like some support; but how do you even figure out what therapist or what modality to look at?! Think of the journey you're on as a bit of an interview/date-like experience: there will be a lot of requirements on paper, but at the end of the day, what matters is how the relationship feels.

Therapy can be daunting, especially when growth often means sacrificing comfort.

My goal as your therapist is to see your story through your perspective and amplify your own power to share it.
