Finding hope, empowering women.

Motherhood is a unique journey—something that looks different for every woman.

Are you constantly struggling with negative self-talk?

Life isn't fair.

What is wrong with me?

I'm shaming my family.

I'm being punished.

Did I wait too long?

Did I make a mistake?

My family dreams are shattered.

You need support from someone who deeply understands you.

Women who have been trying to get pregnant for a long time without success are often struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, and other mental health issues that prevent them from living happier lives.

Sometimes, it's enough to hear the word “infertility” to feel like your entire world crumbles. In your mission to experience the blissfulness of a healthy pregnancy, you might consider Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), such as In-vitro Fertilization (IVF), egg donation, sperm donation, or even surrogacy. However, the entire process is often, to say the least, overwhelming, confusing, and scary.

Maybe you are coming to terms with this loss and are considering adoption or a life without children. You might be struggling with grief & loss over the failed attempts, the IVF cycles, the miscarriages, the stillbirth, the traumatic birth, or the baby you tragically lost. All these are unbearable life challenges, especially if you try to get through them alone without a support network or the help of a mental health therapist.

Or maybe you have succeeded in bringing a baby home, but your motherhood journey has proved challenging, and daily life is more than you can handle. Maybe you feel tired, depressed, or anxious and can't seem to shake these feelings off. You didn't expect to feel this way.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who can help you manage mental health symptoms related to different consequences of life events that have tested your limits and prevented you from leading a fulfilling life.

 

 

Hi, I’m Veronica.

You shouldn't struggle alone—I can help you see beyond today's limits.

I understand intimately how infertility challenges derail a woman's life. My path was long, costly, and emotionally and physically depleting. I found strength along the way, and the outcomes I desired gave me the fuel to keep on trying. I was fortunate to find “success” and can say that I'm stronger because of it, but the “pain points” I experienced are not forgotten.

Together, we will work to increase psychological flexibility, set goals, take action, and build a support system that will work for you. You are the expert of your life. Come as you are, and let's re-discover that strength within you, in a safe space, under my guidance.

● Trust yourself

● You have the answers

● You can feel better

● You are resilient

● You don't need to do this alone

● Lean on others

● Trust in others

● Talk freely without fear of judgment or criticism

I am bilingual. I speak Spanish and English fluently and can provide mental health services in both languages.
