About My Clients
Have you sought help and left feeling worse, less seen, and/or ashamed? As a Latinx therapist, I bring cultural understanding around topics like machismo, emotional suppression, shame, colorism, and fetishization. If you struggle with racing thoughts, have difficulty relaxing, feeling like you are floating through life, experiencing existential distress about the world, or feeling like you aren't enough, I will hold space for you.
My Background and Approach
My goal is to help clients merge their left to right brain connection, thus increasing emotional intelligence and emotional regulation. Mediums I enjoy using during the therapeutic process include (but are not limited to); art, writing, dance, music, meditation, gardening, yoga, and being with nature. I utilize metaphor, humor, and continual gentle challenging throughout sessions which will allow you to develop insight and begin the process of changing thoughts and behavior patterns.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a queer, third generation, Latinx woman who uses a holistic, somatic, trauma-informed, liberation-focused, womanist, and multi-cultural approach to treating individuals with mental health disorders. I believe everyone has the right to live a healthy, happy, life filled with meaning and self-transcendence. I hope to empower clients with increasing self- acceptance, as it is okay to be different. Each one of us has something to contribute to mankind. In addition to focusing on the presenting problem, I want to help clients nourish their mind, body, and soul. No one should ever have to feel like they have to be something they are not. It is an honor to assist clients in breaking down their learned behavior patterns and attachment styles from childhood during our therapeutic journey
