Bridging Mind, Body, and Clinical Expertise

Somatic & Trauma-Informed Clinical Counsellor/RN Psychotherapy | Bilingual (English/Spanish)

I am a seasoned RN Psychotherapist and Clinical Counsellor with years of experience helping individuals navigate the complexities of mental health. My practice is rooted in a unique intersection of clinical nursing, humanistic psychology, and mindfulness-based somatic awareness.

My Approach

Healing is a collaborative journey. My therapeutic style focuses on Humanistic modalities that emphasize the vital connection between your mind and your body. Whether you are navigating trauma-based anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, we will work together to restore your inner balance.

My time living and teaching in Chile profoundly shaped my practice. This experience deepened my understanding of how "energy flow"—both positive and negative—impacts our thoughts, physical sensations, and our fundamental perception of self.

Areas of Support

• Trauma-Informed Care: Specialized support for anxiety and affective disorders.
• Somatic Awareness: Reconnecting with your body’s signals to process stress.
• Personal Development: Coaching for self-discovery and "inner self" alignment.
• Psycho-education: Empowering you with the tools to understand your mental health journey.

A Safe Space for Everyone
