Introduction

Have you ever felt alone in a crowded room? Had an overwhelming feeling of wanting to cry, but not really sure why? Thoughts and worries that keep you up at night? You are not alone, many of us struggle with depression and anxiety in our everyday lives. These struggles might cause us to not perform our best at work, keep us from concentrating in school and cause us to say things that we don’t mean to the ones that we love. In therapy, I can help you identify what you want to improve in your life and create a safe space for you to be able to overcome the barriers that are preventing you from succeeding. My main goal as your therapist would be to help you reach your greatest potential. I have 10+ years providing therapy to youth, adults, families and couples who struggle with depression, anxiety, addiction, childhood trauma, loss/ grief, relationship violence, unhealthy communication and other negative life events. I am a Salvadorian Mexican American, and I understand the struggles of feeling like you don’t fit in in either culture. The struggles of having monolingual parents, the stress of having to be their interpreter and scribe, parent to your younger siblings and filter what information comes across into your household. Luckily, I was also witness to how hard work pays off and the power of setting goals and doing everything in your power to achieve them. Therapy is like your own personal journey, where you get to narrate and decide what your future will look like regardless of your past experiences of loss, trauma, fears and negative coping. And EMDR is the vehicle that will assist you down that road. Imagine having a negative memory or fear pop into your brain, but not feeling the same negative emotion that you felt in that moment, how amazing would that be? If you are ready to start your journey to recovery and walk down the path to success, then schedule a FREE phone consultation today.
