Hi, I’m Connie, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and current doctoral candidate who supports emerging adults, college students, and their parents, through the many transitions that can feel uncertain, overwhelming, or just plain stuck. I’ve walked this path myself and have done my own therapeutic work, so I truly understand how challenging—and transformative—this process can be.
You'll find therapy with me, compassionate, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel more grounded and hopeful for your future. Together, we’ll explore what’s underneath the stress — the thoughts, patterns, and emotions that keep you feeling stuck — and create simple, meaningful steps toward the life you want to live.
You don’t have to have it all figured out — just a willingness to start.

Sobre mi modo de trabajo
Me gusta pensar cada encuentro como un espacio vivo, en donde quien consulta puede detenerse a mirar, a poner en palabras lo que muchas veces se manifiesta de otros modos: en el cuerpo, en los vínculos, en lo que se repite sin que sepamos bien por qué.
Mi rol es activo: acompaño, señalo, hago preguntas. A veces, lo que aparece en una frase, en un gesto o en una duda, abre una puerta. El trabajo consiste en animarse a atravesarla.
¿Y cuándo es buen momento para consultar?
No siempre es fácil saberlo. Pero a veces, el cuerpo o el ánimo lo dicen antes que nosotros. Algunos indicios pueden ser:
• Tristeza que se prolonga en el tiempo
• Cambios de humor repentinos o irritabilidad
• Dolores o malestares físicos sin causa médica clara
• Ansiedad o sensación de estar sobrepasado
• Dificultades para afrontar lo cotidiano
• Pensamientos que se repiten y no dan tregua
• Falta de ganas o desinterés por lo que antes generaba placer
• Problemas en los vínculos que se vuelven frecuentes o difíciles de manejar
Cada proceso es único. A veces alcanza con hacer lugar a una pregunta para que algo comience a moverse.
