About My Clients
I work with creative, high-functioning, over-achieving teens and women that feel the pressure to "do it all" and say yes to every opportunity that is presented to them. Whether you have a fear of failure, perfectionist tendencies, struggle with your relationship to food or your body, or maybe you don't understand why you do the things you do, but want to change, I am here for you.
My Background and Approach
Therapy is about having someone come alongside you in the busyness of life to both hold space and challenge you to overcome the blocks that are holding you back. I relate and empathize with my clients due to my vast background experience in many different fields, but at the end of the day we are all humans trying to figure out this thing called life. I offer a nonjudgemental space for clients to process whatever comes up during our sessions. I work from a person-centered, humanistic approach that believes you are the expert at your own life, but sometimes you still need a little help. I work to normalize the need for help by connecting with my clients through a foundation of trust. I incorporate CBT and DBT skills into my practice, along with IFS as I believe all parts of self are important.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I know that the therapists' beliefs are not important as the focus is on our clients, but at times this can strengthen the therapeutic bond. I am a LGBTQ+ ally, feminist, Latina. I am aware of my own privilege and am a lifelong learner in how I can become a better sister, daughter, friend, therapist to the world. In my free time, I am working on writing a book, enjoy creating content, motivating women through public speaking, trying out new restaurants and coffee shops, and going to the park with my Australian Shepherd.
