Meet The Founder
Whether you’re navigating life transitions, generational wounds, or simply trying to reconnect with who you are beneath all the roles you carry, this is a space where you don’t have to shrink or explain yourself. I’m here alongside a small team of therapists who share this vision to walk with you toward healing and wholeness.
Our Values
Healing becomes possible when feeling safe – both physically and emotionally. We prioritize creating a space where your mind and body feel connected, grounded, and secure in a sense of safety.
A key component to feeling safe is acknowledging all elements and perspectives in a story. This especially includes naming harm that occurred within experiences. In general, women are often blamed for actions and behaviors that are not their fault. We encourage self-reflection and transparent communication to unpack biases and internalized oppressive beliefs.
We acknowledge that we live in an unjust world that has caused harm to people of color, women, and marginalized communities. As part of a healing journey, we encourage self-compassion and compassion towards others. We believe every human being has inherent value and deserves empathy, compassion, and respect.
We encourage self-identified women to reclaim their voice and sense of self. Reclamation means embracing the confidence to speak your truth and honor every part of who you are, including the pieces that have been silenced by oppression. We believe in celebrating and fully integrating all aspects of your identity.
Familia/Family is often highly valued in cultures with Latin American roots. We embrace the celebrations and traditions connected to familias but also invite you to connect to your sense of individuality. Individuality is honoring and celebrating all aspects of who you are as a person.
Community is a group of people connected through shared experiences, values, and goals. We believe collective healing and storytelling can be powerful. We foster collaboration and collective growth while honoring the voices of each individual. Community creates a space to feel seen and heard.
As human beings, we believe we inherently yearn for connection with others. Connection nurtures mutual support, empathy, relationships, safety, healing and personal growth.
Culture is at the heart of our roots. Culture and indigenous roots are filled with rich history, traditions, and wisdom. We value and invite the offerings of your culture while honoring your individual and unique identity.
