Great to meet you!
So glad you found your way here! I'm a queer, hispanic therapist who works primarily with the LGBTQ+ community, neurodivergent folks, as well as those who have experienced trauma.

My approach to therapy
Understanding the nuances of intersectional identities and experiences, I maintain an anti-oppressive and integrative approach. What this means is I take pieces from various forms of therapy to fit your unique needs, while working to empower you to thrive in the position in the world you exist in.
What you can expect from me
It's important to me that you feel like you're able to be your real self in our sessions and get what your want out of the work. Because of this, I show up as my real self each session and check in regularly to make sure we're on the path you want to be on. Collaboration and authenticity are essential!
