About Me

​

My background in acting, fitness, and education, combined with my experience immigrating from Argentina as a child,

has significantly shaped my theoretical perspective and therapeutic approach. I practice from a relational,

depth-psychotherapy framework, incorporating a naturopathic lens and insights from current neuroscience research.

Since 2013, I have been dedicated to helping individuals, children, and families navigate their unique paths toward

healing, growth, greater self-awareness, and connection.

In my work with teens, young adults, and families, I pay particular attention to how a young person’s struggles are

held within the larger family system, and I support parents in becoming steady, reflective leaders in their child’s life. 

I am certified in Traumatic Stress Studies and utilize several sensory modalities, specifically Internal Family Systems

(IFS – Level 2 trained), as well as mindfulness meditation and breath practices. I believe that exploring emotional

wounds, along with the implicit patterns and beliefs they’ve shaped, is essential for fostering self-understanding,

clarity, and self-trust. This process not only helps transform unproductive behaviors and beliefs but also strengthens

the relationship within ourselves—and within our families—a vital foundation for greater authenticity,

autonomy, and overall well-being.

​How I Got Here

​​

I’ve always been captivated by the internal world and the relational dynamics that shape our subjective experiences. My journey began with studying method acting, fueled by a passion for exploring the psychological intricacies of human behavior and the impact of formative relationships on childhood and personality development. At the same time, my

passion for fitness led me to pursue a career as a personal trainer. Later, becoming a mother inspired a shift to a reliable career in education, where I taught elementary grades and eventually specialized in teaching theatre arts for K-5 students.

However, after several years, my path naturally led me back to psychology, where my deepest calling lies. I now integrate

my diverse interests, beliefs, and expertise into a holistic and naturopathic approach to psychotherapy in my private

practice. I help individuals heal from complex distress and reclaim their courage and confidence, guiding them to

develop a deeper understanding of themselves. My work also emphasizes the role of physical health in mindfully caring

for the body, mind, and spirit. By addressing the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and psychological health,

I support clients in their journey toward lasting connection, meaning, health, and resilience.

In deepening my knowledge about the impact that attachment relationships and connection needs have on lifelong

patterns and beliefs, I have found both truth and guidance. Following a professional journey in the psychotherapy field

has been immensely meaningful. I received my Master’s Degree from California State University, Northridge. Most

importantly, I have received in-depth training from psychoanalytic centers throughout Los Angeles and from a variety

of trauma-informed models, as well as trainings in sex and couples therapy, nutritional psychiatry, mindfulness,

somatic practices, and psychopharmacology risks and alternatives. In my work with teens and their parents,

this background allows me to attend closely to the attachment patterns and family dynamics that shape a young

person’s sense of self, safety, and possibility. I also continue to grow and learn through many significant

relationships I have formed with integrative therapy professionals.
