**Teletherapy available** I am trauma informed and believe that individuals are experts of their own life experiences. I specialize in working with issues related to anxiety, depression, grief and loss, sexual abuse & trauma, relationship difficulties as well as life transitions and acculturation issues. I encourage clients to take an active role in their healing journey. I help clients develop their strengths by providing a safe space where they can gain insight, explore possibilities and develop coping skills. I am both bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural. I am EMDR certified. View 5 Photos I am trauma & social justice informed, and use a strength based client centered approach focusing on clients' resiliency. As a "Third Culture Kid" myself, I am aware of the importance of processing issues many TCK individuals face such as loss & grief, acculturation and adjustment issues, as well as the culture shock that often accompanies "returning home". I believe in the strength of the individual and their desire to change. I strongly believe in the power of a non-judgmental and supportive therapeutic relationship and empowering clients to live fuller and more authentic lives. Change is possible and I invite you to take your first steps in your healing journey. I'd be honored to walk by your side.
