Psychotherapy in Puerto Vallarta
Feeling Lost And Hopeless?
Find Empathy, Understanding, & Healing For Your Inner Journey
Break free from the grip of negative patterns and emotions with compassionate psychotherapy.
As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I have seen countless times how each of us learns to adapt in any given environment. These adaptations, rooted in our childhood experiences, can have a lasting impact on our lives well into adulthood.
We all carry painful memories that influence the decisions we make, the relationships we form, the situations we allow ourselves to be in, and ultimately, the level of success we believe we can achieve. My commitment is to assist you in gaining a deep and true understanding of yourself. Together, from that place of understanding, we’ll uncover a clearer perspective on the boundless potential within you and the extraordinary ways that you can experience this world. An incredible life is waiting for you on the other side of these heavy, downhearted feelings and emotions!
Throughout my career in the US and Mexico, I have collaborated with esteemed healthcare organizations and high-performing business leaders and provided support to bilingual and bicultural communities as well. I’m fortunate to be associated with leaders in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, and philosophy.
My experience as a Mexican-American woman has given me an especially deep compassion for marginalized individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, genders, and sexual identities. That’s why I am dedicated to personal growth and advancing my knowledge in psychotherapy and psychology, particularly in the realms of gender and sexual identity. I am honored to work so closely with many members of the LGTBQIA2S+ community in Puerto Vallarta.
I love what I do. I find a great sense of fulfillment in successfully guiding individuals, couples, and expats through complex situations, helping them discover a healthier path forward. Self-help is sometimes a team effort, and that’s why I’m here… to be part of your team.
Often, in order to protect ourselves, we develop defense mechanisms that shield us from feeling vulnerable. But these protective strategies can also hinder our growth and prevent us from living a fulfilling life.

Families are complex systems, with intricate dynamics and interwoven relationships that shape our lives. If you were subject to substance abuse, sexual abuse, violence, neglect, emotional detachment, or if your family was conflict-driven, controlling, or lacked boundaries, then you grew up adapting to a dysfunctional system.

I understand firsthand the toll that caretaking for a loved one can take on your life. Compassion fatigue is real. It is completely normal to experience a range of complex emotions, such as guilt and anger, resentment and exhaustion, or even numbness and indifference.
