TRAUMA THERAPY FOR LATINAS· KATY, TX & ONLINE IN TX & NV
You may not call it Trauma
But something is still there.
Therapy for Latinas who are ready to finally put down what they've been carrying alone.
The weight you've been holding
You've shown up. Held it down. Kept going even when it hurt — quietly, without asking for much, without letting anyone see how heavy it was getting.
You held everyone else together while carrying something inside that never had anywhere to go. No space to fall apart. No one who made it safe enough to say I'm not okay.
Maybe it was something that happened. Maybe it's a feeling that has followed you for years without a name. Maybe you've told yourself you're fine — and mostly believed it — but something in your body keeps saying otherwise.
You don't have to keep doing that here.
This is the place where you don't have to shrink or smile through the heaviness.
This is where the weight finally has somewhere to land.
How trauma lives in the body
Trauma isn't just what happened.
It's what stayed inside when you didn't have the space, safety, or support to release it.
A restlessness that never fully settles, even in safe moments
Staying busy because the quiet feels too loud
Feeling responsible for everyone around you — their moods, their peace, their pain
A heaviness or numbness you can't quite explain
Sudden waves of anxiety, anger, or shutdown that catch you off guard
Feeling disconnected from yourself — like you're watching your own life from a distance
Difficulty trusting people, resting, or feeling truly safe
Most women don't walk in describing "trauma." They describe exhaustion. Irritability. Disconnection. Feeling like they've lost themselves somewhere along the way.
That's the body asking for relief. And it's been asking for a long time. Healing begins when you finally have a space that's safe enough to listen.
What healing can open up for you
Healing isn't about erasing the past. It's about making peace with what your body had to do to survive — and slowly, gently, learning that it doesn't have to keep doing it.
This isn't a race. There's no finish line to reach. Here's what becomes possible when you finally have space to heal:
Feeling less on guard — like you can finally exhale
Understanding why you react the way you do, with compassion instead of shame
Saying what you need without guilt or apology
Letting yourself rest without feeling like you have to earn it
Reconnecting with joy, softness, and the parts of yourself that went quiet
Feeling safer in your body, in stillness, and in your relationships
Carrying your past without being defined by it
You don't have to rush.
You don't have to perform.
You get to just be.
How I Hold This work
Slowly. Gently. Without rushing you.
The kind of space where your body can finally stop bracing.Trauma work isn't something I move through quickly — because healing isn't linear, and your nervous system doesn't respond to pressure. In our sessions, we slow down enough to hear what your body has been trying to say. We don't force anything. We follow what feels ready.
We might work with old wounds that still show up in your present relationships. We might sit with memories that your body held because your mind couldn't. We might simply practice what it feels like to be still — without bracing for what comes next.
I draw on EMDR, body-based approaches, and other trauma-informed tools — not as a formula, but as a way of following your lead. What we use, and when, is always guided by what feels steady and safe for you.
This is therapy that honors your story, your pace, and the woman you're becoming — one who no longer has to carry it all alone.
What makes healing here Different ?
A lot of therapy asks you to talk about what happened. Here, we also listen to how it lives in your body — in the tension you carry, the ways you brace, the reactions that catch you off guard long after the moment has passed.
And we do this in a space that understands your world. You won't have to explain why leaving felt impossible, why you stayed quiet, why you still feel responsible for things that were never yours to carry. The cultural context — family loyalty, generational silence, the pressure to be strong — is already understood here. It's part of how we work, not something you have to convince me of first.
Whether your pain comes from childhood, relationships, generational patterns, immigration, loss, or experiences you've never fully named — there is space for it here.
This isn't therapy that rushes to fix you.
Because you were never broken.
You Don’t Have to Carry It anymore.
You've held this long enough. Through relationships, through family, through years of keeping it together so no one else had to see the weight of it.
Here, you get to lay it down.
You get to move at a pace that feels steady.
You get to feel held — not judged.
This space was made for mujeres like you — for your softness, your strength, and the woman you're becoming after holding so much for so long.
No pressure. Just a conversation to see if this feels right.
