Hello
Here I am in the center of the picture, accompanied by two good friends on graduation day. Like my friends, I'm a mother, daughter, wife, sister, friend, and counselor.
Deciding on which therapist to see is tough, so I hope that this page will give you a glimpse into who I am and ultimately help you decide whether we might be a good fit to work together.
I was born in Mexico City and moved to the U.S. when I was 6 years old. I was a shy kid and I remember what it was like to feel scared, nervous, out of place, and lonely. It would have been helpful to have someone guide me through that important transition; someone to help me develop my voice and help me see and embrace my strengths and use them to problem solve and develop assertiveness. My parents did the very best they could. I know that.
As a parent, I know what it's like to suppress emotions only to have them erupt, causing you to feel regret later. I understand the frustration that comes from not having the confidence to speak up for yourself. All of these things chip away at your self-esteem which can easily lead to depression.
There is hope. It is possible to change the way you think, feel, and behave. Having a trusted person listen, affirm, and support you on your journey makes all the difference in the world. Your life, your experiences, and you matter to me. Reach out; you are worth it.
