Saludos! Do you find yourself experiencing social anxiety, challenges with motivation, or perfectionism? I would love to connect with you. I'm a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and I work with high achieving college and graduate students, early and mid-career professionals, educators, and people in the healing professions who are looking to handle their harsh inner critic and break free from "imposter syndrome". I am passionate about helping people reconnect with their values, build motivation, and liberate themselves from avoidant behaviors (e.g., procrastination) that hinder their ability to reach their goals.
I am originally from Ecuador and speak English and Spanish. I tend to connect well with first-generation immigrants adjusting to a new life in the States, as well as with second- or third- generation folks negotiating family expectations and those of their social, educational or professional life.
Altogether, it is my hope that we can work together to address barriers holding you back from living according to your values. I can’t wait to help you find your confidence and assist you in staying accountable with yourself.
