Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a difficult life transition, struggling in your relationships, or noticing that experiences from your past continue to show up in your present. Perhaps you’re trying to balance the expectations of family, culture, or the many roles you carry while wondering when you’ll finally have space to care for yourself. Whatever has brought you here, you deserve a place where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin making sense of your experiences.
As a bilingual Mexican American therapist and the child of immigrants, I understand that culture, family, identity, and lived experiences often influence how we see ourselves, navigate relationships, and ask for help. Whether we share similar experiences or come from very different backgrounds, my goal is to provide culturally responsive care where you feel respected, supported, and empowered to show up as your authentic self.
Together, we’ll better understand the thoughts, emotions, relationships, and patterns that have shaped your life while building on your strengths, developing self-compassion, and creating practical tools that support lasting change.

Why do I keep people-pleasing or changing myself depending on who I’m around?
Adapting to others can be a powerful way of protecting connection, particularly if you learned that being accepted meant staying agreeable, successful, quiet, or easy to be around. Over time, though, constantly adapting can make it difficult to know what you want or who you are outside of others’ expectations. Therapy can help you understand these patterns, build self-trust, and practice showing up more authentically in your relationships.
How do I know if childhood or complex trauma is still affecting me?
Trauma doesn’t always show up as clear memories of what happened. You may notice it in the way you relate to yourself and others—people-pleasing, perfectionism, difficulty trusting, anxiety, self-criticism, or feeling disconnected from your needs and identity. Therapy can help you understand how earlier experiences shaped these patterns while creating new ways of feeling safe, connected, and more fully yourself.
Is it normal for grief to still affect me even when a lot of time has passed?
Yes. Grief doesn’t follow a timeline, and healing doesn’t mean reaching a point where your loss no longer matters. Certain memories, milestones, relationships, or life changes can bring grief back to the surface long after a loss. Therapy can give you a supportive place to understand what you’re experiencing, make room for complicated emotions, and explore how to carry your loss while continuing to build a meaningful life.
I enjoy spending time with family and friends, going to coffee shops and bookstores, reading, playing board games, and watching movies and tv shows. I also enjoy connecting with nature through walks, hiking, and just sitting outdoors.
