Did you know...

That sometimes we confuse Peace with Boredom... simply because Chaos was the Norm?

Trauma is NOT the same as PTSD

Trauma often also looks like anxiety, burnout, or disconnection.

Hi, I’m Mercedes, a Bilingual Trauma Therapist

I help teens and adults in moving beyond survival into grounded, peaceful living through a culturally responsive and trauma-informed approach

About me

Trauma doesn’t always look like something “big”

Sometimes it looks like your everyday life

feeling on edge for no clear reason, overthinking every decision, shutting down in conversations, or always expecting something to go wrong. It can sound like being “too sensitive,” “too independent,” or “just anxious,” when in reality your nervous system learned to stay on high alert to protect you. What you’re feeling isn’t random and it’s not a personality flaw. It’s a response your body developed to survive.

How Trauma Therapy helps?

I help you get to the root of your patterns, so you can move out of survival mode and feel more calm, grounded, and in control of how you respond to your life.
