Hi, I’m a Mexican–Puerto Rican therapist in Chicago. I work with people who seem strong on the outside but feel overwhelmed inside. Maybe you’re the dependable one, yet the weight of everything you carry feels heavy. I support adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, identity concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and the pressure to hold it together. I also work with neurodivergent clients, perfectionists, highly sensitive people, and those balancing family, first-gen pressures, or cultural expectations.
My approach is warm, grounded, and culturally aware, offering you a safe space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and finally exhale. Together, we explore life’s demands, expectations, and transitions, supporting you in setting boundaries, honoring your needs, and building the tools to navigate challenges at your own pace.
About me: I’m a playful, creative person who values honesty, emotional depth, and connection. Inspired by nature, I love animals—especially cats—and creative expression. I’m also a horror enthusiast and live with ADHD, which fuels curiosity and adaptability. I hold space with care, safety, and grounded tenderness.
