About My Clients
Many of us have had experiences that left a mark in our souls and bodies. While I don't believe in a cure or quick fix to ease such troubles, I do believe we can work together towards integrating and processing past experiences so that they may be more capably carried. I work with older adolescents, adults and older adults specializing in sexuality, navigating adulthood, cultivating authenticity and transmuting trauma.
My Background and Approach
I have a strong background in mental health counseling with 13 years of experience in diverse clinical settings including residential treatment, crisis treatment, trauma recovery and private practice. I have an integrative psychodynamic approach, meaning that I value the past, the unconscious and the transpersonal. Our truths and stories are held in our bodies, so an exploration of the body-mind connection will always find it's way into conversations with me. I am aligned with Psychodynamic Therapy, Somatic Therapy and evidence based practices such as Internal Family Systems Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
We are all capable of growth and evolution. We are worthy simply because we are. Sometimes Trauma Brain get to all of us. We are deserving of grace, forgiveness and compassion. I am Latina, child of immigrants, bisexual and aligned with the polyamorous community.
