How I work with clients
Individuals have often commented on my adaptability, creativity, and ability to be present in listening and providing a safe space for problem solving. I often help you safely sit in your discomfort while guiding you through the reality that you want to create. Utilizing metaphors and creative healing approaches (not all are art therapy directives), we will get you through that difficult space together. Being educated by the individuals I serve is important to me so that I am being as attuned and culturally aware of your needs at every intersection.
Therapeutic Approach
As a bilingual, Latino member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I recognize that each of our experiences is different and impacts each of us in very different forms. I welcome individuals into a safe space to educate me on their experience and tap into the root of where they have felt pain and difference which has impacted their core belief systems. I look forward to witnessing your journey in discovering a new sense of self!
Biography
I started my journey of providing therapeutic support to individuals as a personal need to help others heal through their own struggles. Incorporating art and psychotherapy have been an integral part to making my career the right fit for me. Providing you therapy in the forms of Art Therapy, EMDR, and verbal counseling while incorporating sensitive humor helps to clear out what your mind, body, and spirit have been holding onto for so long.
