About My Clients

My practice supports high-achieving, bicultural, and first-gen women who appear successful externally but carry chronic tension, burnout, or anxiety internally. You may feel exhausted by perfectionism, boundary guilt, or the pressure to hold everything together (sobreesfuerzo). You are seeking deep somatic relief, not just analysis of your story, but a nervous-system reset in a space that honors both clinical excellence and cultural nuance.

My Background and Approach

Real trauma resolution requires addressing how stress and cultural pressure are stored in the body's autonomic nervous system. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I integrate Somatic Tracking, Polyvagal Regulation, Internal Family Systems (IFS) Parts Work, Therapeutic Breathwork, and Reiki Level 2. Rather than relying solely on traditional talk therapy, we track physical sensations, such as chest tightness, throat constriction, or digestive distress, to discharge stuck survival energy and unburden protective "achiever" parts. In addition to weekly private-pay somatic therapy ($250–$300/hr), I offer accelerated 3-Hour and 2-Day Somatic Trauma Intensives ($1,200–$1,499) for deep, expedited processing without months of weekly sessions.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe the human body possesses an innate, natural intelligence designed to heal when provided with safety, attunement, and proper nervous system containment. High achievement should never come at the expense of your physiological well-being or peace of mind. Bicultural and first-generation women deserve therapeutic care where cultural identity, ancestral resilience, and systemic realities are fully understood without explanation. Healing is not about fixing what is broken; it is about unburdening the protective parts of yourself that had to adapt to survive, allowing your core self to emerge with vitality, ease, and somatic alignment.
