I’ve spent the earlier years of my life feeling lost and like I didn’t belong or just that I was so behind it was almost impossible to catch up. The way everyone else showed up in the world so seamlessly and moved about their space was fascinating to me, inspiring too - but ultimately more and more isolating. As everything continued to feel deeply off, I began to embark on a healing journey through therapy, spirituality and movement. As this journey has transformed me and my energy, it also became the way I desire to help others. The modalities I integrate with can include Internal Family Systems, Eye Movement Desensitizing and Reprocessing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Expressive Arts. I understand the sensitivities around life’s challenges and the profound impact it can have on our lives and my hope is that therapy will empower you for positive changes. Start your healing journey today and reach out to me via email or cell. If we are not a good fit, i'll provide you with referrals to make sure you get the help you need.

I grew up in Dallas and always dreamed of becoming a counselor and creating a practice that helps individuals and couples with concerns and issues that have taken over their happiness. I grew up in a Mexican household where mental health was not believed to be something you sought help for. “You just have to get over it” was what I was told. When I went away to college, my outlook was expanded, and I sought counseling for myself. At that point, I realized the benefits and ultimately, the results of being in therapy. Now as a counselor, I see my clients growing, healing, and overcoming obstacles they feared they would never overcome. It is the most rewarding feeling in the world and now my purpose is to continue this journey to help others. *Treatment philosophy I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and supportive environment for my clients. My goal is to provide a healing space where trust and vulnerability can flourish. During the first session, I focus on understanding my clients by exploring their concerns, past traumas, recent life changes, and current coping strategies. Subsequent sessions are more flexible, centering on present challenges. Over time, I identify behavioral patterns that may contribute to anxiety and depression. With compassion, empathy, and a strengths-based approach, I aim to offer a safe and inclusive space where individuals from all backgrounds can heal, grow, and reach their full potential. *Practice description Love Roots Therapy focuses on the mental health needs of adults, adolescents, and couples.
