ABOUT ME

Welcome! My name is Lourdes and I'm a Licensed Therapist in Florida and Colorado.

​

Are you feeling stuck in patterns that aren't working out for you anymore?  Are you kinder to others than you are to yourself? Are your needs at the bottom of your to do list? Would you describe yourself as high-achieving yet no matter how much you do, there is something telling you "do more". I want to help you navigate that. Most of us struggle with these challenges and oftentimes aren't sure how to change it, although the desire to change is there. The therapeutic process is a special relationship that offers a space for you to learn about yourself and make the changes you desire. I am passionate about holding that space and offering support through the delicate nature of change.

 

I am particularly interested in helping people heal from trauma with a psychodynamic focus. Trauma is not only the experiences that we have but the patterns which develop through those experiences out of a need to feel safe in the world. Sometimes those patterns become unhelpful and lead to PTSD, depression, anxiety, substance use, OCD, and eating disorders.

 

With over 7 years of post-graduate experience in trauma-focused care, I also offer support in many modalities including IFS, ERP, CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Brainspotting. These modalities focus on getting awareness of the patterns that don't seem to align with your values, and learning new ways to respond.
