About My Clients

You’ve worked hard to build a life different from the one you grew up in, but family expectations, guilt, and self-doubt still weigh on you. You second-guess your choices, struggle with boundaries, and feel responsible for others in ways that leave you drained. These patterns show up in your relationships and attachment. I take a structured, results-driven approach to help you break cycles, reduce anxiety, and build confidence. Take a chance and prioritize yourself, it'll be worth it.

My Background and Approach

My practice blends CBT, somatic, and psychodynamic techniques, helping clients uncover deep-rooted patterns while addressing real-life factors like routines, movement, and overall well-being. I help align your thoughts with your body. I have a strong focus on generational trauma, recognizing how cultural and familial histories shape present challenges. My understanding of these dynamics allows me to bring nuance and empathy to therapy, especially for those who have felt unseen in traditional spaces.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I value authenticity, empowerment, holistic alignment, cultural awareness, and direct yet compassionate support. As a Caribeña, second-generation Dominican, I understand how identity, family, and generational patterns shape mental health. I take a functional, mind-body approach, blending insight with action to help clients break cycles, build self-trust, and create meaningful change. My therapy style is engaged and customized specifically to you, providing both deep support and the push needed for growth.
