Welcome!
Hey there, I'm Viviana! I've always had a deep connection with the power of the human mind and the importance of emotional well-being. That's why I chose to become a mental health therapist—to make a real difference in people's lives.
Being a member of the Latinx community myself, I understand the unique challenges and experiences that shape us. And let me tell you, therapy can be a transformative journey—one that helps us navigate those challenges and turn pain into strength. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can explore your story, reclaim your voice, and discover resilience in the face of adversity.
I've made it my mission to specialize in trauma, EMDR therapy, anxiety, grief, and loss. Why? Because these are the areas where I can truly make an impact. Through extensive training in trauma-informed care and EMDR therapy, I've learned evidence-based interventions that can support you on your healing and recovery journey. EMDR, in particular, has shown incredible effectiveness in resolving traumatic memories and helping you regain a sense of safety, self-worth, and inner peace.
But that's not all—I'm also here to help you with anxiety, which can deeply affect our lives, relationships, and overall well-being. Together, we'll dig deep to understand the roots of your anxiety, develop effective coping strategies, and nurture your resilience so that you can confidently face life's challenges.
Grief and loss are areas close to my heart as well. I know firsthand how overwhelming it can be to lose a loved one or experience other forms of loss. During the grieving process, I'll be right by your side, offering compassionate support as you navigate the complex emotions that arise. We'll work together to find meaning, hope, and a sense of healing as you embark on your unique journey of loss.
My approach to therapy is holistic and recognizes the importance of cultural context, intersectionality, and the mind-body connection. I blend various therapeutic modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), person-centered therapy, and narrative therapy. By tailoring my approach to meet your specific needs and preferences, I strive to create a warm, inclusive, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment where you feel truly seen, heard, and validated.
So, if you're ready to embark on a transformative journey of growth, resilience, and reclaiming your power, I invite you to reach out to me. Whether we communicate in English or Spanish, I'm here to support you as you navigate the challenges that lie ahead. Remember, you don't have to face them alone. Let's embark on this transformative journey together.
