Meaning and Identity

Psychological issues and difficult life circumstances can dampen our connection to our sense of meaning, identity, or creativity. Psychoanalytic therapy recognizes the interconnectedness of the psyche, the spirit, and community. Through therapy, patients can gain insight into the ways in which their spiritual beliefs, existential concerns, and sense of identity shape their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

At the heart of psychoanalytic therapy is the understanding that the search for meaning and identity is a dynamic and ongoing process. My yoga and meditation backgrounds allow me to incorporate contemplative practices as a means to deepen or discover your relationship to your inner wisdom. I also welcome active explorations of dreams and practices that produce an altered state of consciousness , as they can be integral to psychological growth and healing.

As an immigrant, I am keenly aware of how our communities shape our internal worlds. I have extensive experience in working with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. I am bilingual in Spanish and bicultural, as I was raised in Mexico City.
