Creative Arts Therapist - Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY, USA
EMDR Practitioner - CETAPS, Santiago, Chile
Psicoplástica Certification (specific Jungian approach to art therapy) - Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile
Psychotherapy and coaching: I primarily work with adults (cross-cultural and non cross-cultural) that have an international lifestyle. I support them though life transitions, finding home within, grief and trauma processing and exploration of identity, among other themes. I do this from a person-centered approach and the use of tools such as art therapy and body based techniques to foster awareness, curiosity and acceptance. I am an adult Third Culture Kid myself as my parents were Chilean diplomats. I have specifically worked with ATCKs and other cross-cultural individuals for the last 2 years in my private practice. Before that, I worked with clients who unknowingly were ATCKs in the context of internships or working for another private practice. Primarily Chile, however with international reach depending on the case. CETEnglish and SpanishAdult TCKs (25+)NoChilean private health insuranceIt comes as no surprise that I have a passion for making people feel seen and heard. I know from personal experience how important this is for TCKs. I believe that receiving this kind of validation from a clinician is crucial for healing and belonging. My hope is to be able to support my clients in their journey of self discovery by offering a safe and judgement free space. In that way we can approach hard but necessary questions from a place of curiosity and acceptance.

I was born in Istanbul and raised across continents—North America, Latin America, South Asia, and the Pacific Islands. I’m white, multiethnic, and a third culture kid (TCK). As a TCK, I grew up between worlds, never fully belonging to just one. From an early age, I moved through communities shaped by different languages, faiths, races, and ways of life. These experiences taught me to appreciate differences and the pain of exclusion.They taught me to listen deeply, to notice what’s left unsaid, and to hold space for the complexity of identity and belonging.State of California in the USAPSTEnglishParents of TCKs, Adult TCKs (18+), Teenage TCKs (12-17)NoYes.
