About My Clients
Are you a couple or individual in a relationship with high conflict, post infidelity betrayal trauma, or communication struggles? Are you someone dating or looking to date in a healthier manner which surpasses old toxic patterns? Or are you divorced or divorcing a difficult personality such as NPD or BPD whom you now must coparent with? Although I am results and goal driven my top priority is to make you feel heard, understood, and that you no longer have to weather these storms on your own.
My Background and Approach
My aim is for you to walk out of our very first meeting feeling hopeful. Moreover by meeting you where you are my goal in every session is to give you something tangible to help you. I have a direct, practical, and caring approach that blends well with CBT, EFCT, EFT, Interpersonal neurobiology, mindfulness, positive psychology, and multiple systems theories. I only use empirically studied methods that I have personally witnessed work well with my personal technique. It’s hard for me to delineate in detail what the path of your work with me would look like. I can assure you everyone’s route is personalized and birthed within a collaborative framework. My care and dedication to aiding you in reaching your goals is paramount and nestled in over 25 years of experience.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I consider myself a humanitarian, social activist, feminist, and believer in science and education. I’m also a spiritual individual who respects all forms of religion and non-religion. As long as I can remember I’ve been described as someone who exudes unconditional care, acceptance, and respect. Additionally I have no problem standing up for those who are more vulnerable and perhaps unable to stand up for themselves. Although I’m not personally a member of the LGBTQIA+ community I am a safe place both personally and professionally for this often marginalized group. I’m a Latina woman who keenly understands racial discrimination. I attend peaceful protests and fundraisers for everything from Black Lives Matter to women’s rights. I’ve also been known to volunteer as a speaker at rallies standing up for immigrants.
