Looking for someone to help in this very vulnerable process of asking for help? I feel honored to share space with people who bring the effects of Trauma and Loss to our sessions. I am passionate about helping people with difficult pasts heal and feel more present. I help grievers work through the would-have could-have and should-haves that linger long after a significant loss. If you feel stuck with your past, with a specific event, or not sure what people mean when they say “time heals. Are you noticing yourself in old patterns, overwhelmed with fear or intrusive and traumatic memories, we can work together. I believe you have everything you need to heal. I help people find healing and balance so you can connect with the important people in your life, so you feel more present and engaged. I believe you can heal, I am trained in EMDR and find it really effective at getting you unstuck from the past. Have you spent more time explaining your latinx culture to a therapist, or justifying your large extended family, rather than the issues you wanted to focus on. If you have ever felt stuck because there is no true translation to “sentimiento” or “apapacho” in therapy. I got you! I am a Bay Area bilingual bicultural Chicana therapist. Who loves integrating culture as a means of healing, context and growth.
