I am a licensed psychotherapist in Florida with 6 years of professional work experience in a variety of settings. I have a multicultural background, raised in the US as a first generation latin woman and also lived abroad as an expat for many years in Spain. While in Europe, I studied Culinary Arts and became a chef specialized in healthy cooking and developed an Integrative approach to Wellness and Holistic healing. My scope encompasses the mind, body, and spirit connection. I am also certified in Biofeedback, Culinary Health Coaching and I have recently completed specialization in Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy for both preparation and integration work. I am a mom of three incredible young adults and have been married for over 25 years. My education and unique life experience provides an integrative perspective in the therapeutic space that allows for an increased awareness and compassionate stance for all my clients. I help individuals who are looking for insight into their struggles with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, & trauma. I also have experience working with life transitions and have specialized training in psychedelic psychotherapy integration work. My approach is driven by Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Trauma Informed interventions such as Compassionate Inquiry and Parts Work. I look to provide a safe space for openness and curiosity where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. We will work together to discover patterns of behavior that are no longer useful to you and uncover insights into how to move forward in your life and write the story that gives you the most meaning. I am so grateful you have taken this initial step toward a healing journey, let’s get started!
