Individual Psychological Therapy

Welcome, immigrants, students, activists, artists, people of color, and the queer and trans-Latinx community. This space is for you.

As a professional in somatic therapy, I am passionate about serving diverse communities and supporting them through unique challenges. My expertise includes couples, codependency, intergenerational trauma, sexual violence, migrant experience, loss, and grief. If you are overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, isolation, loneliness, or depression, I provide a safe, judgment-free space to process and explore these issues.

Let's work together to find relief and growth on your path.

Couples Therapy

Are you and your partner facing difficulties and high levels of stress? Do you feel emotionally disconnected and unhappy in your relationship?

Allow me to help you find deeper emotional stability and form a lasting connection.

I have experience working with couples during challenging times, providing guidance and support towards a more satisfying and loving relationship. Through various therapies, I help identify attachment styles, unmet needs, old patterns, and wounds to build a broader range of emotional expression and mutual understanding. With two years of specialized training in PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy), I focus on strengthening attachment and promoting secure functioning in relationships. I offer bicultural couples therapy in English and Spanish.

Trust me to guide you and your partner towards a healthier, happier relationship.

Somatic Therapy

Introducing the revolutionary SOMATIC EXPERIENCING TECHNIQUE, developed by internationally renowned trauma expert Dr. Peter Levine. This body-awareness approach helps individuals overcome the effects of trauma by engaging our innate healing capacity.

Our approach facilitates the completion of the body’s natural trauma response, releasing stagnant survival energy that can cause debilitating symptoms.

Experience real symptom relief and address the root of trauma with somatic experience therapy.

EMDR and Brainspotting

I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a mental health therapy technique involving specific eye movements while processing traumatic memories, aimed at healing trauma and other difficult experiences.

Additionally, I completed training in Brainspotting (BSP), a conversational therapy that reveals unprocessed trauma through fixed eye positions linked to "brainspots," areas of the mind holding thoughts and emotions.

Individual Psychological Evaluation

Psychological evaluations for migration in the United States are a vital resource for those seeking the U Visa, intended for crime victims, and for those applying for political asylum due to extreme persecution and hardship. These evaluations are crucial for documenting and validating migrants' emotional experiences, providing essential support in their legal processes, and helping them rebuild their lives in a safe environment.

Never too late to seek help

SELF ESTEEM
