I believe that grief is part of the human experience and that, as adults, we are always grieving. Grief has no timeline and your feelings are all welcome and valid here. Not all grief is death, as there are many ambiguous losses in our lives. There is inherently grief in becoming a parent, as it is a loss of a former life. Having a neurodivergent child or a child with a disability can also involve an additional layer of grief and loss. I can help you name, explore and accept your grief process.

The perinatal period can be full of hardship, from fertility challenges to pregnancy or infant loss, from birth trauma to postpartum mood disorders, and so much more. I personally have experienced perinatal loss as well as postpartum depression and anxiety, so I come from a place of deep knowing and empathy. Your story is your own, and I can help you find new ways to cope along the journey. Through processing, problem-solving and exploring new identities you can find peace again.

I am trained in EDMR through the Touchstone Institute and Institute for Creative Mindfulness. In addition to EMDR for trauma, I have specialized training in EMDR for perinatal challenges (pregnancy, postpartum, loss). I also have experience assisting parents of neurodivergent kids process parenting challenges and trauma through EMDR. As a yoga teacher I integrate yoga and mindfulness into the EMDR process to assist you in coping and moving through your reprocessing journey.

I help clients find ways to integrate mindfulness into their daily lives, pulling from Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and yoga techniques. Through a process of noticing thoughts, emotions and behaviors and integrating mindfulness as coping, my clients are able to find relief and more control over their lives and selves.

Somatic therapy begins with noticing, which is harder than it sounds! We practice that noticing in the therapy room, and through EMDR. As clients begin to grow in their awareness of somatic sensations and emotions, they then find ways to integrate the somatic coping skills we practice in therapy into their daily lives. Some of these shifts are subtle, and can be so powerful.

I have specialized training in working with PTSD in immigrant and Spanish-speaking communities (I am bilingual in Spanish and English) as well as perinatal-related trauma such as birth trauma or perinatal loss. I tend to treat PTSD through a multi-layered approach of mindfulness and somatic strategies for noticing and treating PTSD symptoms, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for reprocessing and healing.
