If you’re a Latine, first-generation, and BIPOC individual seeking a space where you don’t have to perform, overexplain yourself, or always be the strong one, this may be for you. Many of my clients were raised in homes where expressing feelings or questioning expectations was met with shame. Over time, you may have learned to make yourself smaller and quieter in order to gain approval. Outside the home, you may have also felt pressure to conform to the values and expectations of those around you. Perhaps that meant presenting yourself as polished and without flaws—not only to find belonging, but also to succeed. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) Latina therapist, I support Latine, first-gen, BIPOC individuals navigating cultural identity, intergenerational trauma, family dynamics, relationship challenges, mental health stigma, and academic or career burnout. Using a strengths-based, attachment-focused approach, I help you reconnect with yourself & build more fulfilling relationships. Considering therapy doesn’t mean something is wrong with you, despite what you may have been told growing up. It means choosing to care for yourself and your relationships in ways previous generations may not have had the opportunity to. I invite you to schedule a free 20-minute consultation with me to learn more about how I can support you.
