enraíz therapy

enraíz is a state of connection, nourishment, and belonging.

Adapted from enraizar, which means to take root, enraíz is the sense of wellbeing, bienestar I seek to cultivate and deepen with my clients.

I offer bilingual therapy (terapia en español) centering BIPOC and LGBT+ experiences. Based in Los Angeles, I work with clients throughout California.

Hi, I’m María

I’m a Queer, Mexican, fronteriza from the Sonoran Desert borderlands, happy to call Los Angeles home.

My approach to therapy blends conversation and somatic practices to offer multiple channels for processing emotions.

I’m here to support you with:

  • diaspora grief

  • life transitions, including identity and gender affirmation

  • relationship challenges

  • recovering from traumatic experiences

  • learning to be at home in your body

In my free time, I find joy in nature, clay, mahjong, the wnba (go aces!), and my cats.

Starting therapy is both vulnerable and courageous

Therapy is an investment of time and resources toward your (and your community’s) healing.

As a working class person, who grew up in a culture and community without access to mental health support, I know how hard it can be to take this step.

Whether you are ready to explore therapy for the first time, or continue the journey, I would be honored to walk with you.

No es fácil pedir ayuda

Pero a veces no nos queda otra. Y aunque suene lo contrario, el dejar que alguien nos dé la mano es lo más valiente.

Como terapeuta, quiero acompañarte y realizar el cambio que tú deseas. Si gustas saber más sobre mi trabajo, programa tu consulta gratis.
