Overview

Often our professional demands, school, parenthood, grief, loss, and other life stressors cause us to disconnect from ourselves and others.

The experience of disconnection with ourselves and others is detrimental to our physical and mental health. Individual, couples and family therapy can help.

Research

My research background is rooted in attachment theory. In sessions, clients and I will use evidence-based methods and tools to explore early attachment patterns to better understand how early relationships shape the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of today.

Neuroscience research is also integrated into sessions. In sessions, we will often explore behaviors, physiological reactions, and the fight, flight, or freeze response to foster exploration, healing, and growth.

Languages

I often work with bilingual, international, and first-generation clients, providing therapy in both English and Spanish.

Treatment

Using a strengths-based approach, we can help you achieve a deeper sense of self-awareness, a better understanding of relational patterns, resolve internal conflicts, and gain clarity around personal life goals. With proper support and guidance, my clients internalize therapeutic techniques to become their own therapists in their day-to-day lives.

My approach is suitable for those with:

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Childhood trauma

• Loss & Grief

• Interpersonal difficulties

• Life transitions

• Postpartum anxiety & depression

• Parenting Dilemmas

Specialties

I specialize in supporting individuals and couples navigating the emotional complexities of pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood.
