Introduction

Life throws experiences at us without discrimination, and those experiences can be positive or negative depending on where we are in life and how we handle changes. From having a baby to moving to a new place or the loss of a loved one, these changes can be frightening and difficult to handle without appropriate support and processing. When clients work with me, I provide a safe space for them to identify those fears that are inhibiting their growth. I have helped clients reflect on their experiences and identify their personal strengths. I see people and their surroundings through an Existentialist lens, but my approach is eclectic, and I incorporate techniques from DBT, CBT, Strengths-Based, and Mindfulness practices, among others. My area of focus is complex trauma, race/cultural, grief/loss, depression, and anxiety. I have working experience with minors on the autistic spectrum and have incorporated behavioral interventions in therapy. See if I am the right fit for you and reach out to me for a free consultation, or send an email with any questions. La vida nos arroja experiencias sin discriminación, y esas experiencias pueden ser positivas o negativas dependiendo en dónde estemos en la vida y cómo manejamos los cambios. Desde tener un bebé hasta mudarse a un nuevo lugar o la pérdida de un ser querido, estos cambios pueden ser aterradores y difíciles de manejar sin el apoyo y el procesamiento adecuados. Cuando los clientes trabajan conmigo, les proporciono un espacio seguro para identificar aquellos miedos que inhiben su crecimiento. He ayudado a clientes a reflexionar sobre sus experiencias e identificar sus fortalezas personales. Veo a las personas y su entorno a través de una lente existencialista, pero mi enfoque es ecléctico, e incorporo técnicas de DBT, CBT, Strengths-Based y prácticas de Mindfulness, entre otras. Mi área de enfoque es el trauma complejo, la raza / cultura, el dolor / pérdida, la depresión y la ansiedad. Tengo experiencia laboral con menores en el espectro autista y he incorporado intervenciones conductuales en la terapia.
