Life can feel heavy when you are overthinking , or putting others first, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Therapy os a place to pause, breath and sort through what has been wieghing on you.

I work with cleints that want to understand themselves better, improve their relaionships and feel more grounded in their daily lives.

My approach is warn, honest and collaborative...we will move at your pace while focsuing on real and meaningful change. You don't need to have everything figured out to start, showing up is enough.

I’m a therapist who integrates DBT, CBT, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients better understand themselves, manage emotions, and create meaningful change. My style is compassionate, direct, and collaborative — I believe growth happens when people feel both supported and challenged. I work to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and move toward a life that feels more grounded and intentional.

Hi! My name is Clarissa, and I specialize in working with people who feel emotionally burnt out and are struggling to stay afloat. Life can get really overwhelming, and sometimes we need someone who will listen, ask thoughtful questions, and help us untangle everything that's been on our minds. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, past trauma, or simply feeling stuck, we'll work together to understand what you're going through and figure out what to do next.

I think that therapy works best when it's a partnership. Instead of me telling you what your life should look like, we will explore what feels right for you and go at your pace. I work with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds and offer therapy in both English and Spanish. Whether this is your first experience with therapy or you've been in counseling before, you're welcome here. I hope to hear and see you for who you are. 

Si prefiere hablar en español, será un gusto acompañarle en este proceso.

Together we use the therapy space to co-create a space where you feel safe to show up exactly as you are. My approach centers on exploring your internal landscape—your emotions, values, patterns, and lived experiences—with curiosity and compassion. I believe in your innate capacity for growth, meaning, and self-understanding while attending to questions of purpose, meaning, freedom, and responsibility. I also incorporate elements of wilderness and nature-based therapy, drawing on the power of the natural world to support reflection, grounding, and deeper self-connection. Together, we work toward greater authenticity, clarity, and a more grounded connection to yourself and your life.
