My Approach to Helping

From an ecological model, each person is a unique being existing within and influenced by multiple factors, including family, political time period, and culture. With this in mind, I offer an integrative approach to therapy that provides individualized care to my clients. My practice employs somatic, mindfulness-based, and trauma-informed models of care. I am a SEP (Somatic Experiencing Practitioner) and am trained in IFS (Internal Family Systems).

My practice is a safe space for LGBTQ+ people and neurodiversity. I am nonbinary and Latinx, and I offer gender affirming care in both English and Spanish. I provide a secure and confidential space where you can share authentically and seek support.

Usando un modelo ecológico, cada persona es un ser único que existe dentro de múltiples sistemas e influenciado por ellos, incluyendo la familia, el período de tiempo político y la cultura.

Mi práctica emplea modelos de atención somáticos, basados en la atención plena y basados en el trauma. Soy un proveedor de Experiencia Somática y entrnade en systemas familiares internal al primer nivel.

Mi práctica es un espacio seguro para las personas LGBTQ +. Soy no binario y Latinx, y ofrezco cuidado de género afirmativo, tanto en Inglés y Español. Ofresco un espacio seguro y confidencial donde pueden compartir de manera auténtica y buscar apoyo.

Important Factors for Choosing a Therapist

Therapy can be a deeply healing experience, but finding the right therapist can be challenging. I suggest that you ask for a free initial consultation in order to see if you feel comfortable and safe, and try out a few different initial consultations before moving forward with a therapist. I think of it like this - I might not want to buy the first pair of jeans that I try on, right? It's ok to shop for therapists, and I encourage you to do this. I offer a free phone consultation for this reason.
