Sometimes life presents unexpected and challenging situations to handle. Every so often we spend years carrying the weight of certain painful events that have not been resolved in the past. I understand the courage and strength it takes to recognize when it is time to seek help and someone to talk to about what we are going through.
Everyone is the owner and expert in their life, and I genuinely believe that everyone can cope and overcome life’s adversities. My role as a therapist is to be the bridge that helps you find your own answers, your truth, and the meaning of life. We will identify your goals and aspirations and take steps to achieve the best version of yourself.

I believe the first step to healing is building a caring and therapeutic relationship with my clients. I focus on providing a safe, validating, and non-judgmental space where you
allow yourself to explore and give a place to those thoughts, feelings, and difficulties that you are going through. My therapeutic approach is one of acceptance and
openness, with humble curiosity and respect for you and your experiences.

My areas of focus include relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I practice Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy with a feminist, multicultural, and LGBTQ+-affirming lens.

 

Terapia en Español

A veces la vida nos presenta situaciones inesperadas y difíciles de manejar. De vez en cuando pasamos años cargando el peso de ciertos eventos dolorosos que no han sido resueltos en el pasado. Entiendo el coraje y la fortaleza que se necesita para reconocer cuándo es el momento de buscar ayuda y a alguien con quien hablar sobre lo que estamos pasando.

Todos son dueños y expertos en su vida, y sinceramente creo que todos pueden enfrentar y superar las adversidades de la vida. Mi rol como terapeuta es ser ese puente que te ayude a encontrar tus propias respuestas, tu verdad y el significado de la vida. Identificaremos tus metas, aspiraciones y trabajaremos para lograr la mejor versión de ti mismo.

Creo que el primer paso para sanar es construir una relación terapéutica de confianza y cuidado con mis clientes. Me enfoco en proporcionar un espacio seguro y validante donde puedas explorar y comprender esos pensamientos, sentimientos y dificultades por las que estás pasando. Mi enfoque terapéutico es de aceptación y apertura, con humilde curiosidad y respeto por ti y tus experiencias.

 Mis áreas de especialización incluyen, pero no se limitan a, depresión, ansiedad, migración, problemas de relación, comunidad LGBTQ+ y transiciones de vida.

A little more about me:

Passionate about nature and outdoor activities, I find great joy in going for runs and getting lost in the trails, whether to disconnect or connect. During the summer I love hiking, and in winter I hit the slopes for snowboarding. Besides my adventurous side, I am also highly curious about different cultures. Born in Argentina, traveling to learn about customs and immersing myself in diverse cultures to learn new languages are some of my greatest passions. Colorado has become my home, and to be honest, I absolutely adore it.

 

Soy una apasionada por la naturaleza y las actividades al aire libre, especialmente en la montaña durante todas estaciones del año. Amo salir a correr y perderme en los senderos, ya sea para desconectar o conectar. También tengo una gran curiosidad por diferentes culturas. Soy nacida en Argentina, y viajar aprendiendo sobre las diferentes costumbres, idiomas, historia y cocina internacional es una de mis grandes pasiones. Colorado se ha convertido en mi hogar, y para ser honesta, me encanta.
