I'm a multiracial (Mexican & Filipina) girl from all over. I was born in Boston, raised in Hawaii, California, and Texas--El Paso where my family and I currently live!

Why I Do It
My own wellness journey has included so many approaches beyond conventional ways of healing. I want to help others open their minds, hearts, and bodies to methods that work for them.
MY APPROACH
Selecting the right therapist or coach is important and we know it. Here's a bit about my vibe.
Genuine
I walk alongside you because I truly want to help. As a holistic healer, I use a combination of evidence-based techniques, creativity, and intuition to help you work toward meaningful growth.
Down-to-Earth
I welcome you and your whole personality into the therapy space, and I'll also bring mine. I'm warm, empathetic, open-minded, and relatable. You're human, I'm human. Let's figure this out together.
Empowered
My hope is that throughout our time together, you feel more and more confident in their strengths, skills, and ability to navigate the highs and lows. I believe in your power, and I help you to believe, too,

Trauma & EMDR
Difficult experiences may leave us feeling lost and unlike ourselves. Trauma therapy can help you process the past to move forward to the future you deserve.
Self-Esteem &
Body Image
We live our entire lives in our bodies. Sometimes, we forget to love those bodies due to the messages we receive. Therapy can help.
Parenting
There are a lot of books about parenting, but nothing could adequately prepare you. It's completely normal to face some challenges and we can explore ways to address them.
LGBTQIA+ Concerns
LGBTQIA+ folks face some of the same difficulties as other folks but also have unique challenges best navigated with a therapist who gets it.
