About

Tired of therapy that overlooks the realities of surviving late-stage capitalism? Look no further. My approach is collaborative and integrative, rooted in a blend of personal experience, radical feminism, and abolitionist perspectives. I work with marginalized individuals as they navigate challenging emotions, process complex trauma, explore intersecting identities, and build healthy, meaningful relationships. Together, we’ll work toward healing from trauma created and perpetuated by interlocking systems of oppression, with a focus on empowerment, resilience, and resistance.

Deeply rooted in Liberation Psychology, I actively integrate anti-oppressive frameworks into the therapeutic process, using empirically-supported, trauma-informed modalities throughout. My approach emphasizes the power of positive relationships, combined with elements of evidence-based methods such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

As a queer, nonbinary person of the Mexican diaspora, I bring my experiences, values, and respect for community resilience into the work. I invite you to bring your full self into sessions, fostering a relationship built on authenticity. Together, we’ll create a space that celebrates all aspects of your identity and honors the strength and wisdom within.
