As a clinical psychologist, I believe everyone is doing the best with the skills and resources they have. Sometimes, we need a supportive place to process, gain understanding, develop new skills and strategies to find contentment, hope, and happiness.

Most of us struggle with habitual reactions to life’s challenges — from doubt or guilt to shame or frustration. These responses are built-in, long-established parts of ourselves that we put in place to guard and protect ourselves but that are, ultimately, unsustainable and can be damaging. I want to help you get in touch with and untangle those reactions — those parts — so that you can live a freer life with a more fully-realized sense of self.

Hi there. First, I'd like to wish you well, especially as you work with a psychotherapist. In the 13+ years that I've been practicing, I've learned that each person and each relationship is unique, so I've developed a variety of ways to approach psychotherapy and relationship therapy that help individuals to heal and help couples to relate. By working with thoughts and feelings, with mind and with heart, people can move through what is in the way, blocking them from feeling better and being better. I'm absolutely honored to help with that movement.

You seem to have it all—a successful career, lasting relationships, and a commitment to making a difference. Yet, internally you're plagued by a sense of emptiness, loneliness, and a longing for true meaning and fulfillment. Many of my clients are dedicated high achievers who pour their hearts and souls into everything they do, yet they feel overworked, overwhelmed, and disconnected from their own needs and desires. They yearn for genuine understanding, connection, and the freedom to be their authentic selves. They seek to shed old narratives and limitations, embracing vulnerability to rediscover purpose and vitality.

We often hear “Tell your parents how you feel” or “Cut off your family; they’re toxic”? For many, these suggestions can feel overwhelming, especially when family dynamics are complicated. Communicating boundaries can be especially challenging in a cultural context where family ties run deep. How do you even tell your Hispanic parents what boundaries are? Let’s work together to figure out how you can fill your own cup before filling everyone else’s. The goal is not to do something you are not comfortable doing, but to learn how to interact with them without having to sacrifice your own emotional needs. Allow me to walk alongside you.

I am an empathic therapist with 18 years therapy experience. Clients often come to me with an impaired sense of self, difficulties in relationships, and feeling unsafe in the world due to trauma/hardships in their lives. I assist my clients in transforming their deepest pain into their greatest strengths, finding passion in life, and confidence in themselves. They learn to have deep and meaningful relationships. Ideally, clients will move from a limited set of beliefs to an expansive perspective on what is possible in this life. I also love working with therapists; their personal work enhances their own practice!

Have you ever felt a sudden jolt in energy after a cup of coffee? Or had a sudden urge to poop when you got nervous? That’s your gut talking to your brain. Did you know that 90% of your body’s serotonin—a key feel-good neurotransmitter—is produced in your gut? Simply put, gut health is mental health. The most powerful tool to heal your mental health is your fork! You can’t talk therapy your way out of a serotonin imbalance, but you can eat your way out of one. I know because I’m an expert in gut-brain health. As a functional medicine psychotherapist, I don’t just talk about your feelings—I figure out what’s eating at them.

We each carry within us our unique wisdom, strength and resiliency that, with the right support, can become to the keys to our personal healing. Yet we all go through periods where life circumstances- traumas, life transitions, or relationship difficulties- overwhelm our ability to make sense of our experiences. Perhaps your reactions don't make rational sense to you or your loved ones. Maybe old coping strategies no longer cut it anymore. It can be confusing, terrifying and lonely to not be able to make sense of the storm happening inside of us. It can also be a turning point, a moment to expand into a deeper version of ourselves.
