Therapy Philosophy

My approach is relational, person-centered and collaborative. My belief is that healing doesn’t happen solely in isolation, but rather in connection to other(s) who make us feel safe to be seen and heard and understood-- offering us compassion. Mi enfoque es terapia centrada en la persona (Rogeriana), colaborativa, y relacional. Es mi creencia que la sanación no ocurre solo en la soledad, si no también en conexión con alguien(es) que nos hace(n) sentir que es seguro ser visto y escuchada/o/e y entendide/a/o-- ofreciéndonos compasión.
