About My Clients

As a bilingual Latina, I specialize in providing relationally focused therapy to Latinx people who are experiencing relationship struggles, emotional regulation difficulties, have a history of trauma, or are experiencing difficult life transitions. My clients often comment on how much they feel able to be authentic in session with me. I value and respect clients who recognize that therapy is not just a space to be heard, but also a space to do the hard emotional work of change.

My Background and Approach

My approach is open in utilizing several different modalities always keeping in mind the diverse, cultural, and personal needs of the individual client. The primary approach I utilize is Structural Therapy, which focuses on the way that an individual interacts with those around them, such as their community or family. Together we can get you to a place where interacting with others won’t feel as overwhelming or frustrating as it may be now. I am also currently working on building my knowledge base in Theraplay for all ages and Eye Movement Desensitization Therapy (EMDR), usually focused on trauma related experiences.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe everyone has a story that has created the path for who they are today. Every experience has been a building block for the way one interacts with others and views the world. I think it is often unfair how the world will view healing as the job of the oppressed rather than that of the oppressors. This is a difficult hurdle to jump because I also believe that while there may not be anything that can be done to encourage insight from the oppressor, there can be work done in empowering those that feel hurt or oppressed by others. I am building my knowledge regularly regarding ways that I can not only be a better therapist, but also a better person in the ways that engage with those around me. I can be very introspective of my own actions and work to not only encourage growth from others but also myself. It may be possible that you are not the only one to learn during your therapy session!
