Hi, I'm Felipe, a board-certified counselor and psychotherapist specializing in psychodynamic therapy for individuals and couples.

I help individuals who feel stuck, whether from emotional distress, overwhelming anxiety and persistent worry, or relational patterns that impede meaningful connections. I also work with couples who want to repair prior injury to their relationship, navigate conflict and address issues of disconnection.

Common Reasons People Seek My Help

Intense or confusing emotions

Overwhelming feelings that are difficult to make sense of and, at times, may seem disproportionate and get in the way of daily life.
Anxiety & excessive worry

Thoughts that won't settle, constant anticipation of problems, or difficulty relaxing even when things appear to be going well.
Couples counseling & relationship concerns

Conflicts that repeat without resolution, emotional distance that has built gradually, or a sense that the relationship has drifted from what it once was.
Trauma & its lasting effects

Past experiences that continue to show up as anxiety, emotional reactivity, numbness, or difficulty trusting which keep you from fully engaging with and enjoying your life.
Repetitive or intrusive thinking

Remaining stuck in cycles of unwanted thoughts, replaying conversations, decisions, or past events in ways that make it difficult to stay mentally present and engaged with daily life.
Loss & grief

The pain of losing someone or something significant that lingers longer than expected, or surfaces in ways that feel confusing and difficult to cope with.
