My Background and Approach
Originally from Spain and now based in San Diego, CA, I bring a unique blend of cross-cultural understanding and extensive therapeutic training to my practice. With a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, I specialize in couples and individual therapy, helping clients break free from relationship struggles and life's roadblocks. My approach is direct and efficient, drawing from experience with clients from over 20 countries. I'm EMDR and hypnotherapy trained, and currently pursuing sex therapy credentials. I have published two books for couples. Rooted in Positive Psychology, my practice focuses on unlocking your strengths to thrive. Whether you're seeking premarital counseling or navigating complex relationship issues, I'm here to coach you. As a former journalist turned therapist, I bring a unique perspective to our sessions. My cross-cultural background allows me to deeply understand and support diverse couples and individuals.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a therapist, I'm passionate about personal growth and connection. My life is enriched by travel, my biggest passion, my chosen family of friends, and the ocean. I'm an animal lover and proud mom to my rescue dog, Lupita. Family is central to my life, including my husband, stepdaughters, and nephews in Spain. I find joy in practicing yoga, sailing, reading, writing and listening to music. I also love watching movies and series. I support animal rescue efforts and often foster dogs from Baja to find them a home in the US. Environmental conservation and women's rights are causes close to my heart. These diverse interests and values inform my holistic approach to therapy, helping me connect with clients from all walks of life. My biggest passion is learning, I'm always taking courses and workshops. I'm obsessed with human relationships and behaviors, connection mind and body and how to improve and change for the better.
