Your Needs

Welcome | Bienvenidos, I'm glad you're here

Asking for support can be a challenging and important way to honor yourself and your needs. Let’s build on that courage, curiosity for change and motivation. I believe change is possible and trust - with your therapist, with yourself and your loved ones - can be a key part of healing. 

For many people, mental health challenges can impede connecting and living fully. Experiences of loneliness, burnout and hopelessness can be overpowering. Whether how you're feeling is new or part of a longstanding pattern, together we can try new experiences of emotional safety and bravery, curiosity, compassion, shifting mindset and embodied connection.

I want therapy to be a space where you can express yourself and feel empowered and grounded. Being able to shift away from a stress and trauma response of Fight, Flight or Freeze, can be transformational. We can balance between time to celebrate your wins, build on your strengths, learn new ways to cope and rest in a space for reflection and growth.

Healing happens when neurological corrective experiences unfold, such as sharing disclosures without the intensity that is often triggered by the trauma and stress response. In addition to therapeutic holding, you are invited to share using the words that feel right which for some can be another language. As a bilingual psychotherapist, you are welcome to use English, Spanish, or Spanglish during sessions.
