A Bit About Me
As a Latino Queer Therapist, I have come to recognize the profound impact of understanding the
intersections of my identities on my personal growth and sense of belonging. Growing up, I often
felt marginalized and othered, which has helped shape my commitment to supporting others in
similar spaces.
At Awakening, I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for those who have felt isolated
and alone. I believe that when we awaken to our true needs, we set the stage for meaningful change.
In Individual Therapy, we will explore and unpack the complexities of your identity, examining how
societal influences, systemic factors, and familial dynamics contribute to feelings of oppression.
Together, we will work towards achieving a unified and empowered self-concept.
In Couples Therapy, I am trained in Level 1 Gottman Method and incorporate Emotion-Focused
Therapy to help you bridge the intimacy gap in your relationship. My goal is to support both
partners in understanding how their individual narratives shape their connection, while also healing
past wounds to foster a deeper, more meaningful bond.
Join me on this transformative journey as we unpack the narratives that have been imposed on you
and work together to create the story you’ve always envisioned!
