GIVING SHAPE TO HOW YOU FEEL
Helping adults and kids
feel safe, seen, and understood
Beyond talk
You might have people around you, but it still doesn’t feel like enough. Maybe you don’t want to burden the people you love, or you just need more room to sort things out on your own. Meaning Making is a space to slow down, look at what you’re carrying, and start making sense of it.
GIVE urself a break
You’ve been holding a lot together while feeling disconnected from yourself. Trying to keep others happy leaves you drained, stuck in overthinking and self-doubt. Something hasn't felt right lately.
Life may not look the way you imagined, and change can feel overwhelming. But small shifts can begin to open things up.
Less stuck
No amount of self-improvement can replace self acceptance. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Board Certified Art Therapist I will join you exactly where you are and help you feel more safe. more seen. and more understood. In this work, meaning isn’t something we impos—it’s something we discover together, through presence, creativity, and curiosity.
This is my inner child.→
Hi. I’m DANIELA
I couldn’t imagine graduating kindergarten, let alone becoming an adult. I never would’ve believed I’d travel the world, spend a decade as a creative director, or leave the stable life I built to return to graduate school and become an Art Therapist.
Back then, I didn’t have words like bisexual, pronouns, or Latina. I only knew I wanted to feel safe being myself.
If you’d told my younger self any of this, she probably would’ve blinked at you and gone back to coloring.
the art of becoming
I offer a steady, supportive space to sit with what feels difficult and begin to understand it. From there, we find ways to move forward that feel more connected, manageable, and true to you.
