About My Clients
Often I work with clients who have trauma histories and because of that have symptoms of anxiety and depression, and more specific patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, or hyper independence. My work focuses on identifying and eliminating limiting/subconscious beliefs and being able to understand, appreciate, and have collaboration internally with thoughts, emotions, and sensations. You may be ready to stop being limited by your past and step into your highest timeline.
My Background and Approach
I have always been deeply passionate about how our internal world, including our thoughts and emotions, which are invisible to the naked eye, can make up and create our outer reality and can have such a strong impact on the quality of our lives. That passion has led me to receive a B.A in Psychology and Spirituality as well as an MSW in Social Work and pursue advanced training in IFS and EMDR, healing and integrative modalities to help you overcome what you've been through and become the most expansive version of yourself. Due to subconscious beliefs in childhood and unprocessed traumas that can accumulate, I see therapy as a way of undoing all the kinks. I find the process of therapy very alchemical, and as a true Scorpio, I have no fear of going deep and helping you transform when you come back to the surface. I truly enjoy helping others transform darkness and pain into love, hope, and freedom and do it with a style that is warm, collaborative, and based in deep honor.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I'm a multidimensional person just like I know you are. I hold the following identities: LatinX (Nicaraguan-American), straight, and cisgender woman. I believe that each person is shaped both by their nature and their environment, and are a beautiful medley of both, and therefore I will respect and honor all of your identities and lived experiences. I fundamentally believe in the need to respect others and to treat others with love and kindness. I believe that on planet earth there are many levels of suffering and violence that people can be subject to - personal and collective violence. Nevertheless, I believe that humans are powerful healers of themselves and can overcome experiences of violence, oppression, or marginalization and that everyone's birthright is to feel joy, peace, and satisfaction. I also have spiritual views, help clients connect to theirs, and zoom out on life to identify what will give life meaning in this one precious lifetime.
