I didn’t come to this work through a textbook. I came to it through life. Through hard questions, complicated relationships, and moments when I had to sit with my own confusion long enough to find something honest on the other side.
Being Mexican has shaped the way I see, relate and connect to people. Growing up in a culture built around family, loyalty and belonging, then building a life in Canada, taught me that identity is never simple. It shifts. It stretches. Sometimes it hurts.
For the past seven years, I’ve worked with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, identity questions, and the kind of pain that can be hard to explain. What I’ve learned is that people do not need to be fixed. They need to feel heard, understood and supported. I believe change starts when we begin to understand the inner and outer forces we operate under in life. Not who we think we should be, but who we really are. Family, love, silence, responsibility, forgiveness, belonging. These things shape us more than we often realize.
The Journey Back to Your Own Voice
I bring the training, experience, and grounding that comes with being part of the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors and working as an RCC. While this guides my work, part of me believes that healing not only comes from books or rigid frameworks. For me, therapy is more human than that. It is about understanding your story, your roots, your relationships, and the parts of yourself that may have been left behind along the way. My role is not to tell you who to be. It is to walk beside you as we make sense of where you have been and where you want to go.
Wherever you are in your journey, you do not have to face it alone. Fill in the form and I will be in touch soon. By submitting this form, you agree to our Privacy Policy.
The healing journey from A to B
Point A is the part of you that had to survive. The version of you that kept going, even when life felt heavy, confusing, lonely, or painful. It is the part carrying fear, guilt, silence, self-doubt, or wounds that were never fully understood. It is where we learn to cope the best we can. We stay quiet, we lose our sense of self, we shut down, we stay in relationships that hurt us, and we convince ourselves we are fine when we are not.
Point B is not perfection, and it is not about becoming someone else. It is about becoming more fully yourself. More aware of your patterns, more connected to your own voice, and more grounded in what you truly need.
A component in the path between A and B is therapy, but not therapy that feels cold, or imposed on you. It is counselling that feels human. A gentle kind of support that helps you understand yourself differently, reconnect with your strength, and make sense of what you have been carrying for so long.
You are not broken. Sometimes we simply need the space to reframe what happened, let go of what no longer belongs to us, and begin to see ourselves with more compassion.
What we can work through together
Grief & loss
Grief comes in many forms. The loss of a person, a relationship, a future, or a version of yourself. There is no right timeline for healing.
Life transitions
Ageing, retirement, illness, loss, separation, or major life changes can leave us feeling unsteady. This is a space to reconnect with yourself and find solid ground again.
Obstacles with identity
Exploring who you are is deeply personal. You will find a space built on respect, care, and no judgement.
Relationships & family
The people closest to us can bring both love and pain. Together, we can explore difficult family dynamics, repeating patterns, and relationships that no longer feel healthy or clear.
.
Self-discovery
Sometimes there is no crisis, only the feeling that something is missing. A desire to understand yourself more deeply, live more intentionally, and feel more connected to who you are.
Self-doubt & existential questioning
There are moments when life no longer feels the way it once did. Together, we can explore those questions gently, helping you reconnect with yourself, rediscover meaning, and find a new sense of purpose that feels true to who you are now.
Stress, anxiety, depression & anger
Signs of lost hope, uncertainty, or a life that has felt too heavy for too long. Together, we can find a path to the root cause, honour old narratives, and discover a new one that fits better.
Trauma & childhood wounds
Some experiences stay with us long after they happen. We work gently and at your pace, so the past has less power over the present.
