Costa Rican.
A sex therapist that gets you!
HI, I´M
Mom, Jungle Gril. Costa Rican
A sex therapist thatgets you!
Hi, I’m
If we’re just meeting, let me tell you a little about myself.
Here are 5 fun facts about me:
Raised Catholic, Educated by Cosmo… Clueless About Sex
I used to think something was wrong with me because my desire disappeared, even though I loved my partner. To be honest, I had so little education around sex. Most of what I knew came from Cosmopolitan. Yikes! And on top of that, I was raised in a country that’s 90% Catholic, where learning about sexuality wasn’t just taboo, it was seen as not something a lady should do. I went through the motions, tried everything, and still felt disconnected until I finally learned to listen to my body instead of performing. I didn’t always have the answers. Now I do, and I want to share them with you because I know how lonely and confusing it can feel.
I’m a Mom, often tired and busy
Outside of work, I’m juggling plenty. Running a business, parenting, showing up for my partner, and making time for friends and family. I know what it feels like to be tired and always having a long to-do list. That’s why I make space for movement, rest, love, and nourishing food. I prioritize healthy routines because they help me feel more grounded and present.

Yoga, Mindfulness,
and Feeling Deeply
I’m a therapist, yoga instructor, Tantric practitioner, and avid meditator. I am someone who deeply values presence, connection, and authenticity. I’ve always been a bit of a nerd, consistently at the top of my class, with degrees from universities in multiple countries. However, no textbook taught me as much as sitting across from people, with my heart open, really and deeply feeling them. That’s where things start to shift, when you’re seen, heard, and genuinely understood.
More Than Just Talking
I’m the kind of therapist I would want for myself. I enjoy meaningful conversation, but I also believe talking alone isn’t always enough. Real change often comes from trying things out, which is why I use practical tools during and between sessions. You’ll leave with something to work on, not just something to think about. I care about what happens in your life long term, not just how you feel today.
Multicultural
Background and
Jungle Roots
I grew up in a small town in Costa Rica. My days were full of tree climbing, eating fruit straight from the branches, exploring rivers, and playing sports with the boys. I was a tomboy with a lot of energy and a love for nature. I also worked hard, earned a scholarship, and graduated with honors before moving to Texas. I now have several degrees in psychology and sexuality, but I still carry the spirit of that jungle girl who loves being outside, laughing with people, and feeling free. That part of me keeps things real and grounded, both in my life and in the therapy room.
