About My Clients
Many of the people I work with are used to being the strong one for everyone else, but inside feel anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of themselves. They may struggle with overthinking, setting boundaries, or repeating the same relationship patterns. Some are also navigating family or cultural expectations. They want to feel more confident, secure, and connected to themselves.
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, practicing under the supervision of Elizabeth Duran, LPC-S. I specialize in working with anxiety, relationship issues, and past experiences that continue to impact the present. My approach is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy and EMDR. I focus on helping you understand the emotional and relational patterns that shape how you experience yourself and your relationships. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what you are feeling, and begin to shift patterns that no longer serve you. When appropriate, EMDR can be used to process past experiences so they feel less overwhelming and have less impact on your day to day life. I offer therapy in English and Spanish and aim to provide a supportive, culturally aware space.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe therapy should feel like a space where you are truly seen, understood, and not judged. You don’t have to hold everything together here. I see people as deeply relational, and I believe our experiences shape how we see ourselves and connect with others. I don’t focus on quick fixes. I believe in slowing down, understanding where patterns come from, and creating meaningful, lasting change. As a first-gen Latina, I understand how culture, family expectations, and identity can impact mental health. I value creating a space that feels safe and affirming, especially for those navigating cultural or societal pressures. Social justice and inclusivity are important to me. I show up as warm and honest, while also gently challenging you. My goal is to help you feel more connected, secure, and confident in yourself.
