EMDR & Brainspotting
trained
I'm trained (level one and two). Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a mental health treatment technique. This method involves moving your eyes a specific way while you process traumatic memories. EMDR's goal is to help you heal from trauma or other distressing life experiences.
​
I completed a Brainspotting training (level one).
Brainspotting (BSP) is a talk therapy that reveals a client's unprocessed traumas through fixed eye positions. Specific eye positions each link to their own “brainspot,” an area of the mind that retains thoughts and emotions.
My Approach
Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues?
You don't have to face them alone. As a bilingual (English/Spanish) psychotherapist, I have worked with a variety of clients dealing with a range of challenges, such as trauma, family problems, and relationship issues.
My approach to treatment is direct, kind, dynamic, and tailored to meet your unique needs. With a focus on cultural sensitivity and client collaboration, I am dedicated to helping you find relief and growth in your mental health journey.

we don’t just heal our bodies.
By refusing to pass on the trauma we inherited,
we help heal the world.”
