About

English | español If you’ve found my page, you’ve probably already realized that the usual family advice of “get over it or go clean something” isn’t fixing your anxiety and depression. Maybe you’ve already tried therapy and realized that finding someone who sees all of you, culture included, isn’t easy. Maybe your family’s expectations don’t feel like they fit for you and setting boundaries is a struggle. Or maybe, you feel like you’ve got one foot in both worlds and don’t fully belong to either. Not feeling accepted or supported may be on your mind. Together, we'll figure out who you are outside of gender roles and family expectations. You will develop skills to feel like you’re thriving and not just surviving. I’ll show up for you where you’re at while you build a community who supports you for who you are. My goal is to empower you to reach your goals by recognizing ways you're strong already.
