My approach
My professional background primarily involves helping people who have experienced trauma -big & small- and addressing the different ways it shows up: anxiety, depression, attention issues, and relational difficulties, among other personal struggles.
I am an attachment based therapist who uses an integrative approach. My practice is grounded in helping you explore your past, embrace your present, and step in to the person you want to become, using mainly EMDR, parts work/internal family systems theory, mindfulness, and somatic practices. .
Whether you are having relationship difficulties, feeling stuck, stressed or dealing with life challenges, our work together will provide you with the insight and tools to navigate these difficulties and unlock your full potential. I believe in your inherent goodness and self-worth, and stand by the notion that it's never too late to embrace a life of joy and fulfillment.

A little bit about me
I am an EMDR trained, bilingual -English - Spanish- licensed mental health clinician. Throughout my life, I have walked many paths and have personally experienced the transformative power of therapy in revealing a more authentic self and cultivating a deeper sense of contentment. As a result, I firmly believe in the value of therapy and the importance of persistently striving to be your most joyful self.
For fun I enjoy movement and taking care of mind & body, the beach, hiking, connecting with others, learning how to be a better therapist, and challenging myself to new experiences.
Main Modalities used: EMDR and Internal Family Systems theory; Mindfulness and Somatic Techniques.
Other modalities used: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Brief Therapy.
