Bio: You’re used to holding it all together, but lately it feels like something underneath is starting to unravel. You might look “fine” on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected underneath.

I work with adults who are used to pushing through who are now feeling burnt out, stuck, or unsure how to slow down.

I take a collaborative, gentle approach to help you regulate your nervous system, make sense of what’s been weighing on you, and reconnect with yourself in a more grounded way. If you’re feeling emotionally drained, overstimulated, or unable to switch off after work, you’re not alone.

I work with caseworkers, social workers, frontline workers, and first-generation individuals who are feeling burnt out, stuck, or unsure how to slow down. You’re used to pushing through, now you need support.

As a first-generation Latina and former anti-human trafficking caseworker, I understand what it’s like to carry a lot while still showing up for others.

I’m Sam, a Registered Psychotherapist with six years of experience supporting trauma survivors, frontline workers, and first-generation individuals. I offer a free 15-minute consult to answer your questions and see if we are a good fit. You don’t need to have everything figured out to reach out
