Our relationships influence the way we view the world, the way we view ourselves, and impact our overall experiences of joy, fulfillment, and meaning.
Hailing from Miami, Florida, I am half Cuban, a quarter English, a quarter Irish, a little feisty… and entirely committed to building a life that is based in authenticity, compassion, open-mindedness, and gratitude. I won’t pretend to have it all figured out, but I can confidently say that the relationships I’ve built with myself and others consistently inspire me to live according to these values. In other words, the relationships in my life make my life worth living.
This is why my professional work is dedicated to helping others create and maintain authentic relationships with themselves and others. Therapy can be tough, but I believe that we all have the capacity to work through difficult phases of life.
If you’re ready to invest in yourself, I invite you to schedule a free consultation with me. I’d love to help you build a life based on who and what you value most.

Therapeutic Approach
To me, the therapeutic process is a collaborative one, meaning that I view my clients as experts on themselves and regularly consult with them on treatment processes along the way. The therapeutic relationship we develop will offer us a unique opportunity to explore your values, identify ways in which you can communicate and listen more effectively, and help you to build compassion for yourself and others. Our work together will allow you to achieve greater connection with yourself and others, engage in intentional personal growth, and ultimately, to live more authentically.
Therapeutic Orientation
I approach therapy from an integrative framework, drawing primarily from humanistic, relational, and acceptance and commitment theories of practice. I practice from a sex-positive, multicultural- and trauma-informed lens, and am LGBTQ+, CNM-, and kink-affirming.
