COUNSELING SERVICES
10+ Years of Experience
Hey there!
As a first Gen Latina, I really get along with immigrants who work super hard
and aim high. A common thing I hear in session is, "Since I got here, I feel like I've lost touch with who I am." People often talk about feeling unsure
about their skills and feeling not good enough.
But guess what? This
journey isn't just about getting used to a new culture; it's about finding who
we really are, succeeding, and feeling awesome about ourselves again. We all
want to do well and rediscover our true selves. It's like a cool adventure of
self-discovery and achievement! My goal is to facilitate your personal growth
and self-awareness while equipping you with the necessary skills to confront
and overcome your challenges independently.
I find immense
satisfaction in understanding the relationship between body, mind, and
emotions, discovering negative patterns passed down through generations, healing your wounded inner child, fostering emotional stability, nurturing
healthy relationships, and promoting overall well-being. I particularly enjoy
working with individuals aged 16 and up, Latino clients, diverse populations
and sexual identities.
My therapeutic
approach combines elements of various modalities, including Family Systemic
Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered approach and attachment
theory.
Personally
I am from Colombia
and grew up in one of those tiny towns you probably haven't heard of. I
completed my psychology bachelor’s degree in Bogota and through the end of my
20's, I moved to Houston, later in time I met my Husband and planted roots in Cypress
Texas. Best decisions ever! When I’m not at work, you can find me wrapped around my dogs’ little paws, enjoying a beautiful sunset, or getting my hands dirty in the garden trying to keep my plants alive.
