I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a masters degree in Clinical Psychology, based out of Old Town Scottsdale, Arizona welcoming clients locally and globally.
I was raised by Ecuadorian parents and two uneducated, monolingual Indian nannies that provided me an wonderful childhood and an amazing range in perspective. I've been a student of life for as long as i can remember, naturally curious and inquisitive, especially in the dynamics of human behavior. My earth school lessons started early, bouncing back and forth between countries, cultures, languages and the rules of engagement.
I paid attention and did what I could as a highly sensitive person to gain a sense of belonging but it wasn't always available to me. I studied psychology from teachers, texts, gurus and hundreds of self help books but only came to truly understand human suffering from my own pain.
My journey took me inward and to this day continues to remind me that home, that sense of belonging is an inside job.
Finding that connection within is a process of slowing down, peeling back the layers of conditioning, limiting beliefs, programs and narratives that betray our true essence. Life seems to know exactly what experiences will bring us to our knees. I've come to see the struggle as optional. Surrendering to life does not have to be a difficult. Resistance makes it so. Our ego, fears, need to be right, attachment to the good opinion of others... contribute to resistance.
My intention is to support myself by shining the light of awareness on the unconscious patterns with compassion. I've come to see guilt and shame as just another layer of innocent confusion waiting to be met with love. Navigating through life, trusting my inner guidance and choosing my truth over all the distractions and curve balls is the journey. Painful, as well as liberating, it has become my strength and inspiration in offering support to others.
I've been counseling, coaching and teaching in the field of psychology for 40 years and am versed in various modalities, however, my primary focus and true calling is to awaken the spirit in you and support you as you transcend the circumstances of your life. It's not easy breaking free but it's the most rewarding work you'll ever do.
I speak Spanish, the language of the subconscious, facilitate The Work of Byron Katie, work with the new energy psychology modalities including hypnotherapy, EMDR, Emotional Freedom Tapping, Yoga, Shamanic Reiki, toning.
...and consider it an honor to do this work with you.

When I'm not partnering with clients to help them
rise and shine, I'm practicing yoga, spending time in nature, concocting high vibration foods and hanging out with my family.
My greatest teachers in this earth school are my children.
