Since I was young I noticed that some of my biggest strengths were empathy and compassion. It felt good when I could help others feel better by listening and supporting them. When I was 15, I attended a workshop called Positivity and Self esteem for teenagers, led by a psychotherapist. Some of the techniques he used were timeline therapy, Neuro linguistic programming (NLP), and the use of trance states such as meditation and hypnosis.

By the end of the workshop I felt a sense of peace and connection with my higher self, like never before. It was life changing for me and a real inspiration. That was when I decided what I wanted to do in my life, help people feel same way I did at that workshop. So when I got to college, I started training for what I would become today. I graduated CUM LAUDE as a Psychologist at Universidad de Monterrey in Mexico in 2000. Then I continued my growth by studying a Masters degree in Gestalt Psychotherapy at the Centro de Investigación y Entrenamiento en Psicoterapia Gestalt Fritz Perls, in 2005. I worked as a child psychotherapist and a teacher, while in Mexico for several years.

When I moved to the United States I was presented with blocks and barriers due to accreditation, having my professional studies done in a foreign country. So I was led to find other routes to help people the way I knew. I found an amazing Heart Centered Hypnotherapy program at The Wellness Institute in Washington State, where I became an Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist. I did 9 years of training through several of their programs (2011-2020). I trained in individual and group therapy, using techniques during trance states, like NLP, regression therapy in this life and past lives, soul retrieval, meditation, among others. I also became certified by The National Guild of Hypnotists. During that time I completed a third degree Reiki Master practitioner training in 2013 at the Northwest Reiki Center in Washington State. I also trained as a Transpersonal Life Coach in 2020 at Avenues Wellness.

I have a private practice where I use meditation, hypnotherapy, coaching techniques and energy healing, providing the space for individuals and groups to become aware of unhealthy patterns, to connect to their inner wisdom, in order to make appropriate changes of behavior, which will allow them to find joy, inner peace, connect to their spirituality and follow their life purpose.

In group settings, I teach workshops on personal growth, Mindfulness and Meditation and in some I combine art as a way of speaking with the unconscious.

I have over 10 years of experience in the United States, working with individuals and groups by providing a space of transformation and growth, using a holistic and integrative approach and guiding people to tap into their wisest self and identify what brings a sense of meaning and purpose to their lives, overcoming limiting beliefs, and recognizing patterns that obstruct accessing joy and attaining their fullest potential. In the process of doing so, I get to fulfill my life purpose too!! I love the work I do!
