Introduction

As a queer latinx therapist, I understand the unique experiences and obstacles faced by LGBTQ people of color. I work alongside clients, exploring their strengths and resilience, and finding ways to build a fulfilling life that aligns with their values and authentic self, rather than the version of themselves they have had to become to conform to the pressures of the world around them. With a background in both residential and outpatient eating disorder treatment, I practice from a Health-at-Every-Size and fat-positive perspective. My goal is to empower clients to increase their sense of safety and connection to their bodies by challenging societal expectations and diet-culture. Social justice is embedded in my work and I am passionate about trauma-informed care. I aim to create a secure and compassionate space for healing marginalized, oppressed communities. Therapy is political and I know that the things that are happening in the outside world come into the room with us. I am passionate about anti-racism work and the liberation of queer and trans identities. My approach to therapy focuses on an attachment and internal family systems lens, emphasizing the humanness of experiences and growth in discovering parts of the self. I feel honored to delve into clients' stories and witness the vulnerability and bravery of their journeys.
