Life is full of obstacles and unforeseen problems. Often we feel hopeless and overwhelmed without knowing who we can reach out to for guidance.

Therapy leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and significant reductions in feelings of stress. Let me help you work toward alleviating the difficulties in your life and work with you to achieve your goals.

My clients come from diverse backgrounds but all have one thing in common: they are bound by past traumas that continue to control their present day. My primary theoretical approach is one of interpersonal and holistic psychology that draws from acceptance and commitment therapy, psychodynamic, existential, feminist, and multicultural counseling work. I use meditative practice and applied mindfulness as well as a holistic trauma model to allow my clients to find peace within themselves while also equipping them with the skills needed to continue their personal growth after therapy is complete.

Clients come to me looking for a therapist who's multicultural and sex-positive, because therapy should be a place where you feel safe and free of judgment.
Unsatisfying sex leaves us feeling inadequate, unloved, and disconnected. You may be fed up with sex feeling like a chore rather than fun and pleasure-filled, feeling like your relationship (with yourself or a partner) has gone stagnant or feeling disappointed, sad, and lonely. You might be wondering how it even got this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to reconnect with yourself and your partner. You’re ready to have pleasure-filled and fun sex. Most of all, you’re ready to embody your authentic sexual self.

In my practice, I draw upon a unique blend of psychodynamic psychotherapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, and multicultural psychotherapy all guided by a trauma-informed lens.
You wake up in the middle of the night, your mind swirling with thoughts of whether you'll ever be able to trust someone again – to let down those walls that have become your armor. The old ways of coping that once served you now seem to be crumbling, leaving you feeling even more adrift. Each time you tidy up a space, the weight of responsibilities feels unbearable, and you can't help but yearn for someone to care for you, to give you the break you so desperately need and deserve. If your day-to-day seems like a maze of responsibilities and obligations that leave little room for your own well-being, I understand and I can help.

I strongly believe in the potential of human beings to access their inner resources to create change and empower themselves to have the quality of life they want and they deserve. I am a Spanish/English Bilingual Therapist who works with adults. As an immigrant myself, I understand cross-cultural and acculturation situations that hinder daily life due to immigration processes. Part of my focus as a therapist is to comprehend and work with the nuances of different backgrounds and cultural needs. I have been a hypnotherapist for over 14 years. I have extensive training and experience in Traditional and Ericksonian Hypnosis. I also have training in healing emotional wounds through regressive techniques.

Multicultural Therapists

What type of therapy is multicultural therapy?

Multicultural therapy is not tied to any specific therapy; rather, it is an overarching approach to therapy that aims to acknowledge and address the influence that factors like race, gender identity, and cultural background can have on someone’s life. Multicultural approaches can be applied to CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and others, and can be practiced with individuals, couples, families, or groups.

What can I expect from multicultural therapy?

Multicultural counseling should be tailored to the client’s unique identity and cultural needs. Such approaches often prioritize the building of trust so that the client feels comfortable exploring various aspects of their identity and any challenges caused by mismatches between their identity and the dominant culture. Beyond that, the format and timeline of therapy will be heavily influenced by the therapist’s preferred therapy approach and the specific problems for which the client sought therapy.

Can multicultural therapy help treat trauma?

Yes. Cultural factors such as racial background, gender identity and or sexuality, and immigration or refugee status can influence both whether someone experiences trauma and how they cope afterward. Multicultural approaches to trauma-informed care will be aware of these influences, helping the client recognize how their response to trauma may be shaped by their cultural background and identify coping mechanisms that take their identity into account.

What are the benefits of seeing a multicultural therapist?

Members of minority groups who seek therapy are sometimes frustrated by providers who don’t understand their cultural background or dismiss the ways in which race, gender, or other facets of their identity influence their lived experience. Seeing a multicultural therapist can help these clients feel seen, understood, and able to develop solutions to life challenges that take their upbringing, beliefs, and past experiences into account.
