Hi I'm Blanca

I'm so glad that you have taken on this journey of growth and healing. I work under a multicultural and trauma informed lens that allows me to understand your individual needs and meet you where you are in your journey. Together we will focus on your currents needs and goals. I am excited and honored that you would allow me to accompany you through your healing journey. I specialize in helping POC individuals heal from trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, through a EMDR lens to help desensitize and reprocess negative thoughts and emotional distress.

“Blanca helped me face some challenges at work that were bleeding into my relationships. I wasn't present anymore because of all of my anxiety. She helped me be more present and balanced.”
