Looking for therapeutic counseling is the first step on your journey to a happier and healthier version of you. Part of that process is finding the right therapist. My goal is to hold a safe space, that is non-judgmental and a comfortable environment where you can be yourself. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, where you are the expert of your own life, and your goals are the focus. I want to work with you to overcome obstacles and issues that are interfering in your life

Now offering therapy intensives! Current openings. Sick of feeling held back from the life you want? Angry at the state of the world and feeling powerless to make a difference? Feeling unsatisfied even after doing pretty impressive things with your life? I work with folks who take therapy very seriously and make big connections from the process of getting curious about oneself. We walk through life together and figure shit out! Reach out if you're beyond ready for change. I offer unconventional session formats to meet your availability.

We each have an innate wholeness. Our work is centered around connecting you to this wholeness. Health is not just being able to have positive experiences, but to be able to move through the range of human experiences without getting stuck in one over another. In this way, I view health as the ability for movement – whether that be psychologically, energetically, or within a system. The ability to move and adapt without getting stuck is essential for our well-being. It is my intention to help call forth your Unknown Self – so that you may move through life in your wholeness. It is a true honor to get to do this work.

It is common to see therapy as a journey to discover the Self. We have familiar maps, or patterns, which can lead to unhappiness or self-sabotaging behavior. You may find yourself stranded in all-too-familiar territory with little idea of how to move on. Like many journeys, it can be an exciting adventure but can also be full of unknowns. I see my role as your guide, to blaze new “routes” together that have worked well for others. As Helen Keller once said: “What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.” I truly believe the exquisite joy you find by falling in love with yourself is a journey you don’t want to miss!

Sometimes a moment, or moments, in your life will haunt you. It can make you feel disconnected, like a stranger to yourself and your life. I believe we all have different ways of processing pain. I have worked with folks who struggle to stay out of the hospital and folks who simply need a connection. I enjoy being present and meeting the needs of both types. I really work hard to meet you where you are and help you identify what you need to get to where you want to be. No one asks to stay lost and miserable and I appreciate the privilege of witnessing the transformation from pain to clarity.

I have experience working with children (ages 8+), adolescents, adults, and the elderly, as well as couples and families. I deal primarily with clients who have mood and anxiety disorders or issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, anger, grief, and body image issues, and work collaboratively with these clients to create clear goals that will provide them with a brighter, happier future.

I provide support and guidance so that my clients do not have to bear their struggles alone. We work collaboratively to understand what is not working and why. We examine past patterns of experience to help us understand current feelings and behaviors. We can create lasting change and transformation by addressing the underlying issues. I emphasize individual empowerment which allows the client to own their own victories. Empowerment creates a ripple effect which can transcend every aspect of ones life not just in one specific area.

Many of us encounter challenges as we search for deeper self-understanding and endeavor to make meaningful sense of our lives. We may find ourselves struggling with feelings that are frightening or navigating painful patterns that we don't yet understand. I'm here to support you in putting words to and becoming compassionately acquainted with these complex inner experiences. The more of ourselves we put into words within a safe and nurturing relationship the more receptive we can become, both to our own depths and to the rich complexity of life.

My areas of focus include: mindfulness, trauma, adolescence, family systems, parenting and co-parenting relationships, ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, life changes, stress management, existential matters, and personal growth.

Incorporating warmth and humor to create a safe, comfortable therapeutic space, I will partner with you to address your mental health symptoms until you feel back in control of your mood, your thoughts, and your life. I work across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, and families. My expertise includes trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, behavior management, family conflict, life transitions, and relationship issues through a predominantly Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) approach. As a queer cis female, I especially enjoy working with the LGBTQIA+ community.

You're an ambitious person, and you love what you do, but recently something has changed. All of a sudden you don't feel like yourself anymore. You feel exhausted and overwhelmed. You used to feel successful and competent, but these days you don't feel like you are getting anything right. On the surface, things look great, but inside you worry that it's all falling apart. When you lay down at night, you can't seem to quiet your mind, and you wonder if you will ever feel "normal" again.

My work primarily focuses on anxiety related issues especially when going through a transition (break-up, career change, medical diagnosis). I work a lot with people as they adjust to life living on their own, navigating careers, and relationships. Much of the session will be focused on calming your flight or flight reaction so you can be in a better place to make decisions, set goals and respond to whatever life throws at you. I provide video and face to face sessions.

Growing up with expectations placed on our masculinity can feel like so much pressure, and can make us so hard on ourselves. That’s why I focus on creating a supportive, affirming connection with you in which you feel safe enough to really meet yourself, to discover that perhaps your struggles don't have to rule your life, and that you don't have to suffer this much. I'm a seasoned therapist with over a decade of experience AND a fellow traveler who knows what these stressors feel like- I've been there, too. I meet folks right where they're at with no judgement and help them develop skills that enable meaningful change.

My specialties are helping you heal depression, anxiety, trauma, self-doubt & relationship issues. I realize it's difficult to find a good therapist & to expose yourself to someone new but perhaps you've now decided to take this step towards healing. I have been in private practice for 38 years. I am dedicated to provide you with compassionate, skilled, enlightened psychotherapy and guidance tailored to your sensitivities & needs. I will help you understand the reasons beneath your fears, discover your innate strengths, self-compassion & develop the empowerment that helps you lead a life filled with joy, energy & love.

You deserve to be more engaged in the present moment and hopeful for your future. I am highly motivated to collaborate with you in achieving your personal goals, improving your mental health, enhancing your quality of life, and celebrating your resilience. We will build a therapeutic relationship to help you heal from past traumas, challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, evaluate unfulfilling relationships, and practice new skills to build a life in which you feel empowered and satisfied. My hope is for you to feel safe bringing your whole self to therapy. My goal is for you to be heard, validated, and witnessed in your growth.

Do you want to find a safe space to get clarity and be able to hear your inner voice again? Would you like to be understood and not judged, and simply have a space where you can be YOU in this process? Well, then, welcome for having taken the first step and being here. I am a Latina bilingual therapist who is passionate about mental health. It would be my honor to join you on this journey as you find your path again.

The most important need for individuals is to be truly heard. In my practice I place that need before everything else. My goal is to create an atmosphere of trust that allows the client the freedom to share their most personal experiences without fear of judgement. For over 30 years I have worked successfully with clients in crisis, those who have endured abuse and/or trauma, parents with issues related to their children, divorce and separation, grief and loss, as well as issues related to everyday living.

Life sometimes presents challenges that can overwhelm and disconnect us from ourselves and leave us feeling lost and alone. Whether we are adults or children, we can develop patterns that do not serve us well, as we struggle to cope. I help clients (individuals and couples) examine rather than run from their anxiety, depression, or uncomfortable feelings arising from change, whether at work, in school or at home. I believe that we all have strengths and the potential for well-being. Together we will reduce conflict and stress in your life, improve performance and seek better health.
