Why Work With Me

As a proud Mexican American and bilingual therapist, I intimately understand the push to honor family expectations, juggle multiple identities, and still yearn to belong somewhere fully. Growing up as an eldest daughter in a Mexican household in Texas, I lived in the in-between — honoring my roots while carving out space to grow into my own voice. That lived experience, along with my leadership training at Texas Christian University (TCU), shaped the way I show up as a therapist: with warmth, cultural humility, evidence-based insight, and deep respect for the complexity of your story.

I provide online therapy across Texas for high-achieving adult children of immigrants and individuals raised by emotionally immature parents. Many of the clients I work with are leaders, perfectionists, caretakers, “the strong one”, “fixer”— outwardly successful but privately exhausted — trying to hold it all together while navigating the emotional residue of generational trauma and unspoken expectations.

In our work together, we’ll untangle generational trauma, build & strengthen inner trust, and release the burden of people-pleasing and performance. You’ll learn to lead your life from a place of alignment, not anxiety. My hope for you is to live more authentically in your relationships, career, and sense of self—you’re seen here, and your story matters.

My approach integrates:
• DBT for emotional balance and distress tolerance
• Attachment-focused and Polyvagal techniques to support relational and nervous system healing
• IFS (Internal Family Systems) to help all parts of you feel seen, safe, and understood

Expect real talk, cultural nuance, deep insight, and space for both tears and laughter. Together, we’ll co-create a space where you can finally breathe, feel, and come home to yourself.
