About Lorraine…

My core mission is to help young adults and women struggling with life transitions, loss, trauma, and/or painful wounds from the past. I am passionate about working with insightful and spiritual young adults and women, in all seasons of life, who are ready to face the challenges that are blocking their growth such as self-doubt, anxiety, perfectionism, unhelpful generational behavior patterns, and limiting beliefs. It is my mission to help them know their worth, discover their unique gifts, and find their voice so they can reach their goals and create the life they envision for themselves.

As a first-generation Latina, I understand the blessings and the challenges that come from trying to stay connected to my beloved culture while also breaking free from the limiting beliefs and generational behavior patterns that kept me from stepping into my power. My path to becoming a mental health provider was born out of the challenges I faced as a young mother struggling with low self-esteem and self-doubt. I felt so supported and empowered by my experience in therapy that it inspired me to pursue a career where I too could help other young women. I have come a long way since then and continue to learn about myself and challenge myself to evolve into wiser and braver versions of me.  I don’t think we are ever done evolving, and I believe that it’s NEVER too late to start.  

I have had the privilege of serving individuals, children, and families in my local community. It’s been the most challenging work that I have done and the most rewarding. My community has taught me that pain and suffering can coexist alongside courage and hope. I carry many of the stories and experiences that my clients have lived through with me and they are my inspiration to continue to be a dedicated therapist and advocate for mental health.  

Being a therapist is not just my career or job title; it is my calling. I am passionate about empowering young people and women to set healthy boundaries while having compassion for all the layers of who they are. I am committed to guiding my clients through their personal journeys of breaking free from self-defeating behaviors, healing painful wounds, and connecting to their highest selves.
