I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse communities, including survivors of human trafficking, individuals in the justice system, college students, and Spanish-speaking clients. These experiences have shaped my approach—one rooted in both compassion and accountability.
Therapy with me is an interactive process. I ask thought-provoking questions, challenge unhelpful patterns, and empower you to make meaningful changes. I don’t believe in “tough love”—growth doesn’t require self-criticism. Instead, I’ll help you cultivate kindness toward yourself, even when it feels impossible.
As a child of Guatemalan immigrants and a recovering perfectionist myself, I understand how identity and expectations shape our struggles. My goal is to help you transform your mind from a place of fear to a space of safety. You deserve to feel at home within yourself. Let’s make that happen—together.
You Are Enough—Let’s Help You Believe It
You’re tired of feeling like you’re never enough. No matter how much you achieve, that inner critic whispers, “You could’ve done better.” You replay conversations, second-guess yourself, and struggle to speak up. Deep down, you crave confidence—to walk into a room feeling comfortable in your own skin. But self-doubt, perfectionism, and comparison keep holding you back.
You don’t have to live this way. Together, we’ll quiet that harsh inner voice and build lasting self-worth. Using a blend of self-compassion, mindfulness, and evidence-based approaches like CBT and DBT, I’ll help you break free from negative patterns and step into your authentic, confident self.
