Available tomorrowI am here to be a compassionate and accepting support as someone who has experienced significant and complex trauma that led to my own path of healing that is non-linear and shaped by the strength of my ancestors and culture. I am bilingual and would love to connect anyone who speaks Spanish or is from a different culture, as I believe learning and connecting with others fosters belonging and compassion which we all need. I hope to nurture the healing of mind, body, and soul by incorporating each individual's culture and knowledge into a path towards creating a fulfilling and authentic life.

A Peer Specialist helps with shame because shame thrives in secrecy and self-silencing. A 1-on-1 session can make it easier to name what feels hidden, feel less alone in it, and begin replacing harsh self-judgment with understanding.

- Self-judgment, secrecy, and feeling fundamentally flawed
- How shame is affecting your relationships, self-worth, and visibility
- The overlap between shame, trauma, perfectionism, and fear
- Compassion, language, and support that loosen shame's hold
Who these specialists may help
