Cuore Therapy

This weekend, I had the opportunity to attend the Latino Mental Health Association of NJ Conference, “Fuerza en Unidad.” It was truly an inspiring experience.
I had the privilege of learning from colleagues across New Jersey and witnessing the impactful work being done in our communities. The presentations—and especially the keynote—were powerful and thought-provoking.
I was also honored to present on the work I do in Dallas, Texas, supporting migrant communities, and to share reflections on the importance of the immigration story in therapy. It opened meaningful dialogue about what our communities are experiencing and how we, as clinicians, can continue to support them.
Learning about decolonizing approaches to therapy, as well as the deep trauma experienced by children and families separated through immigration detention, added profound depth to this experience.
I am grateful for the connections made—for the conversations, the shared laughter, and the collective commitment to this work.

Welcome in 🌿
This is my office — a space designed to feel calm, warm, and safe. Every corner reflects care and intention, so that my clients and I can truly exhale here.
Healing takes place when we feel grounded and supported, and that’s the energy I hope you feel the moment you walk in.
It’s a trauma-informed space — but more than that, it’s a space that feels like home. 💜

I’m excited to share that I’ll be presenting at the Latino Mental Health Association of New Jersey’s 2026 Annual Conference, “Fuerza en Unidad: Intersections of Healing & Collective Action,” at The College of New Jersey on March 20–21, 2026.
My presentation, “The Importance of the Immigration Story in Therapy,” explores how migration shapes identity, family dynamics, and mental health across generations. I’ll be talking about how bringing clients’ immigration stories into the therapy room can deepen understanding, honor resilience, and open up new possibilities for healing.
In this session, I’ll share:
* How immigration journeys become part of family narratives and impact belonging, self-worth, and relationships.
* Narrative-based tools for working with migration trauma, separation, and cultural transitions in therapy.
* Culturally responsive approaches that bridge systemic practices with the realities immigrant communities face today.
If you work with immigrant individuals, couples, or families—or you are passionate about mental health and migration—I’d love to see you there.
