Welcome!
I’m a queer, multi-ethnic Mexican-Jewish woman who grew up involved in the child welfare system. My passion is helping others reconnect with their authentic selves—especially under the weight of cisheteropatriarchal oppression. This work is deeply personal to me, shaped by my own experience of being cut off by my Catholic Mexican grandparents after coming out.
What to expect at your session
If you’re new to therapy, I’ll guide you through the process step by step at a pace that feels comfortable. Our first session will focus on understanding your concerns and identifying what matters most to you. Together, we’ll develop a plan to help you move toward your goals with kindness, empathy, and a personalized approach that feels right for you.
