Are you wanting to experience life more fully without worry, anxiety or doubt?
It's been a while since you've felt like YOU. Whether than means internally or within your relationships. You can sense that you're stuck in a cycle but can't seem to find your way out of it.
​
You may have even spent time and energy trying to find a solution. It feels frustrating you haven't been able to figure this out on your own, or find a therapist that can help you connect the pieces.
​
You know there needs to be deeper exploration within yourself or your relationships. You just aren't sure where to start or how to effectively get there.
Hi! I'm Ysabel.
I'm your dedicated partner for nurturing a deep sense of connection & authenticity in your relationship with yourself or your partner.
Ever find yourself tangled in the hustle of daily life, wrestling with relationships, or feeling a bit lost? Maybe you're longing for a deeper connection with your partner or chasing personal growth, but something's off, and you can't quite put your finger on it. It's like you're just skimming the surface of yourself, and the reasons are elusive.
Perhaps your relationship is on shaky ground, or when you're alone, a flood of heavy emotions and thoughts leaves you scratching your head.
But here's the exciting part: there's a journey waiting for you, a path to discover a whole new you. It's not just about gaining insight; it's about empowerment and the unshakable belief that positive change is not just a possibility but a reality within reach.
​
In our therapy sessions, we're not just scratching the surface of today's worries; we're diving deep into the echoes of yesterday's challenges. Picture this: I'll meet you exactly where you are, ready to guide you through a fresh perspective on yourself, your world, and your relationships. Together, we'll navigate those uncharted corners, those uncomfortable spaces you might not have known existed, all to restore balance and harmony to your life and connections.
​
And here's the game-changer: we'll also explore somatic techniques to help you become more attuned with your body. It's not just talk; it's about connecting with your entire being. We'll tap into the wisdom your body holds, unraveling knots of tension and unlocking a profound connection between your mind and body.
​
Think of it like we're in this together, dealing with the real stuff that matters. It's not just about finding yourself; it's about getting back that spark and rebuilding connections that really count. Ready to give it a shot? Let's start this journey side by side—where we figure things out, make it real, and your fresh start is just around the corner, ready to happen.

1.
Complex & Relational Trauma
You might not even be sure if you'd call it "trauma" because you feel others have had it worse. Yet, as you reflect, you realize that part of your life or relationships have been challenging with uncomfortable experiences. Trauma leaves deep imprints on the psyche, influencing sense of self, perception of others, and ability to form & maintain healthy relationships.
I can help you can create a life rich in present-moment awareness, as you gently release yourself from the grip of past wounds.

Couples
Therapy
​
It's natural to feel a wave of hesitation when contemplating couples therapy. Relationships can be a source of joy in life, but they can also introduce intense pain, disappointment & stress.
Regardless of the complexities of your unique relationship, together we can unlock the door to a relationship infused with passion, connection & genuine joy.
3.
Anxiety & Depression
Anxiety can take over with persistent worries, unease, and restless thoughts that can manifest as physical discomfort, fear, and a sense of impending doom.
​
Depression takes over the mind and heart with a fog that drains joy, motivation & energy. It can color life, leaving a sense of emptiness that can't always be seen.
​
Together we can unweave the layers of these struggles to allow you to rediscover a life with hope, resilience & healing.
4.
Relationships & Attachment
Attachment is a fundamental part of the human experience. Early experiences with others shape how we seek closeness, trust and emotional support from others. As we grow, this framework extends to relationships as we seek security, love and intimacy.
​
Together we can work on exploring and understanding the interplay between how you experience life and attachment. I provide a space for personal growth, transformative healing & satisfying connections with others.
5.
Life Transitions
Life transitions often hit us when we least expect it, but even if we know it's coming it can be filled with uncertainty. It can be transitioning into college, a new career, navigating a major relationship change, coping with the loss of a loved one, preparing for parenthood, or rediscovering personal identity after a major life event.
I'm here to provide a space to navigate these transitions with clarity. A space to tap into your inner resilience, with authenticity & a renewed sense of purpose.
Therapy Approaches
Inner Child Work
Begin to draw connections with childhood experiences & how they can subtly guide your adult behavior. Together we'll identify what needs healing & love, which leads to realignment between grown self & inner child.
Mindfulness CBT
Learn to have a non-judgmental & accepting attitude toward your thoughts, emotions & experiences. Create a more adaptive relationship with your thoughts & emotions to better manage difficult emotions. Learn to observe your experiences without attachment or avoidance, while becoming aware of your body's involvement in the process.
Somatic Embodiment
Learn to live more connected to your body and your nervous system. Focus on your body, thoughts, and actions in relation to your physical being and energy. Work towards releasing pent-up tension that is impacting your overall mental health & wellness.
Internal Family Systems
Heal by developing a healthy relationship with your internal parts that were created throughout childhood. We'll work through your internal space, to foster self-compassion, healing & integration. Be able to connect with your inner wisdom and capabilities.
DBT
Learn to have balance between acceptance and change in your life, while incorporating mindfulness. Work towards knowing how to better manage your emotions, develop effective interpersonal skills & enhance your ability to tolerate distress. Build a life worth living despite emotional challenges.
Relational Life Therapy
Learn to improve your relationships (couples, families, friends & individually): a romantic relationship, improve connection with family members or navigate challenging interpersonal dynamics in other areas of your life. You'll explore relational patterns, identify areas that need improvement & identify strategies to create positive changes. The ultimate goal of creating a foundation for lasting, meaningful connection with others through relational mindfulness.
