I recorded a podcast today, where I talked about how imposter syndrome hits BIPOC deeper in the context of racism, and my own story internalizing messages of not belonging. My heart was racing the whole time.

I shared how I support other BIPOC wellness professionals using Brainspotting, a healing modality I’m passionate about, and my voice was shaking.

Because even in spaces where my voice is welcomed, as a Mexipina there is still colonized thinking and questioning if I belong and deserve to be in such spaces.

But I did it. It did it because I know how important is for people of color to take up space in a society where we are constantly told we can’t, shouldn’t, or don’t deserve to.

BIPOC folks, we are out here. We are out here holding it down, and doing amazing work. We deserve to be heard, and take up space. Every. single. one of us.

For anyone else that struggles like me, join me in pushing against internalized bu****it to live out loud, even if your voice shakes. I’m with you and cheering you on ❤️

Good morning ☀️☕️ for anyone else that needed this, in case no one told you today…

I’m taking a few extra sips of “Your best is enough” and “It is okay to rest.”

Another year another ***depreventionday. Those who have been impacted by su***de know that the effects are every day, and forever lasting.

Talk to those you love about how they are REALLY doing, and combat stigma by talking openly about mental health.

You could save a life.

Why is Business Coach for Therapists] attacking me?! 😂😭 I’ve always known the difference intuitively, but for reasons I need to keep working on in therapy, I frequently blend capacity and availability anyway 🤦🏻‍♀️ Who else struggles with this?!

“Availability: that which is available/free/up for grabs.

Capacity: the ability to hold / absorb.

Just because you have 20 hours open on your calendar doesn't mean that you have the capacity to hold 20 hours of emotional work.

You've got to get clear on your emotional capacity, which means that you have to believe, and admit, that doing more doesn't make you more worthy, a better therapist, or more deserving of ease ✨” ~ Business Coach for Therapists] Thank you for this!!

With life and career transitions come new profesh headshots! Here’s a few of my faves...

It’s been almost 4 years since I took my last ones. So this is my now married, tired af new mom, still a therapist/social worker, new group practice owner, and now consultant too look 🤪 And you can’t even tell I was on the verge of a meltdown and then proceeded to have said meltdown before/after the shoot 🙃 With life and career transitions also come meltdowns! 😬😌

Thank you Sarah Deragon from
for this shoot! I felt like I could be my true mess of myself that has s**t together just enough to get new headshots during all the new exciting/exhausting/scary/anxiety provoking/wonderful life changes. I’d say this was all captured 😁Thank you Sarah!

If you’re in the Bay and need new headshots get at ! Sarah even offers a special for millennials, even the “geriatric” ones like ya girl 😂

Happy Friday! It’s a sunny day in the East Bay ☀️ and I’ve been waiting to announce the launch of my new group practice 🥰

My practice has evolved so much in 3.5 years. I’ve grown and learned a lot and am ready for this next phase of leading a group of therapists on a mission to empower young women of color while providing quality mental health services✨

Gigantic thanks to my husband, family, and besties for supporting me along the way, all while I’m still over here learning how to be a mom 😴🤱🏻 A special thanks to who’s coaching me in shaping my vision 🤩

And to you, my IG/FB friends who’ve been cheering me on along the way thank you! Go ahead keep that party going by following here on IG and on Facebook. Also check out our website to see what we are about and stayed tuned for updates! 😊

This is really exciting to announce 😁

EMDR transformed my therapy practice and my ability to help clients heal, and now I’m really happy to share that I’ll be supporting other EMDR therapists obtain their own certifications😊

If you are a EMDR therapist looking to sharpen your skills and work towards certification, let’s do this!

Fees for group and individual consults are subsidized as I’m considered “in training” working with closely with my own consultant, and because I know how expensive it is to stay on top of our game in this field.

Not only will you get consultation on Basic Protocol, Treatment Planning, Case Conceptualization, Use of Interweaves, and more. Note I have special interests in:
•Use of the Flash Technique
•Complex Trauma
• and Racial Trauma & working with BIPOC clients

BIPOC therapists encouraged to reach out 🙂

If you, or a therapist friend is ready to get started email me at:
[email protected]

Feel free to share 😊 Thank you!

I haven’t been wanting to deal 😥 I’ve been numb. I’ve felt sadness, anger and fear but haven’t wanted to really sit with it. I’ve been avoiding. S**t is too much. The racial trauma AAPI folks are experiencing right now isn’t new, and this is a shout out to my AAPI peeps that whatever you are feeling right now is valid and okay.

I’m thankful for people like for the reminders of how to cope, when I even as a therapist can forget how.

We need eachother 🤎
