Cada día sigo sacando espinas
De lo profundo del corazón”

We are told that parenthood is magical, while most of the time that statement can be true, parenting can be exhausting. Trying to parent your child/ren in new ways that differ from how you were raised can be challenging and breaking generational cycles of behavior that have been passed down is not an easy task.

We often think that inheritance can only come financially, yet we tend to forget that inheritance can also be received in so many ways. Your child/ren are inheriting compassion, love and acceptance from you, as a parent.

Just how generational trauma can be passed down through generations, so can generational healing. You are the person to break old cycles and start a new healthy cycle! I will be holding a space for you as a parent, while also holding space for you as a human being. As you learn tools to parent your child/ren from a place of love, curiosity and acceptance, you simultaneously nurture yourself with the same qualities of love, curiosity, and acceptance.

“Te regalo mis piernas
Recuesta tu cabeza en ellas
Te regalo mis fuerzas
Úsalas cada que no tengas
Te regalo las piezas
Que a mi alma conforman
Que nunca nada te haga falta a ti”
-Carla Morrison

So many times we have been told that by a certain age, we are supposed to know who we are and what we want out of life. We measure our success by the material possessions or professional achievements, and in that journey, we tend to forget who we are at the core. We live in a society that demands a lot from us, and that leaves us in an ongoing survival mode.

We will work together to rediscover the core parts of your whole being. Your inherent value and worthiness as a person is not contingent on your achievements, experiences, or anything external. Your existence itself is what gives you inviolable worth, regardless of what you have or have not done. Self-discovery and finding meaning in life is an ongoing journey!

Welcome! Firstly, congratulations on taking this important step towards seeking therapy services, whether you are a new or returning client. I'm glad you are prioritizing your need for support.

For the past decade, I have been involved in the mental health field. Through my education, training, and personal experiences, I've learned that no single therapeutic approach works universally, as we are all uniquely different individuals. Regardless of whether a client shares my cultural background or not, I remain keenly interested in understanding their lived experiences and cultural traditions. With your permission, we can incorporate cultural practices into your therapy sessions.

I approach my work with clients through a lens of curiosity, gentle humor, using relatable sayings and metaphors, and with an underlying sense of hope. I meet you wherever you are in your journey, and as we build rapport, I will compassionately challenge you while always respecting your boundaries.

Although we often hear the term "expert" used to describe someone with extensive knowledge on a topic, I also view it differently when it comes to therapy. As much training and knowledge as I may have, you are truly the expert on your own life experiences. My role is to support, challenge, and guide you in rediscovering and exploring different aspects of yourself along the way, while you make positive changes in your life.

Thank you for your time. I look forward to working with you.
