What should a new client know about working with you?

I know that meeting a therapist for the first time can feel intimidating, so I want to share a little about who I am and what brought me to this work. I am an Ecuadorian-Puerto Rican-American woman, a first-generation college student, and someone with working-class roots. I share that not because therapy is about me, but because my experiences have taught me that for some clients, it matters to sit across from someone who understands what it feels like to navigate multiple worlds at once, to carry family expectations, or to feel unseen in spaces not built for you. Like many of my clients, I grew up learning what it meant to carry strength for my family while also finding my own voice. As the eldest daughter, I often felt the responsibility to be “the strong one,” even when I was struggling on the inside. My relationship with my grandmother (or mamí, as I called her) taught me something different—that true strength comes from connection, tenderness, and allowing ourselves to be cared for, not just to care for others. Those lessons are at the heart of the work I do today.
