Rooting to Earth.

Reclaiming Soul.

Psychotherapy for Our Times

Welcome. Bienvenides. 
​My name is Alicia (she/her/ella).  I am a Chicanx psychologist.  
For the last 15 years, I have been exploring how to integrate Western psychotherapy with the Earth-centered, soul-honoring traditions of my ancestral roots.

I combine my training in Western psychology with my roots in a kincentric worldview.  Everything is connected and interdependent:  mind, body, soul, spirit, ancestors, humans, land, plants, animals, fungi, insects, water, earth, air, fire, minerals, the cosmos—everything seen and unseen. Western psychology and neuroscience are just now beginning to catch up to Indigenous knowledge systems and recognize this interconnected reality.​

Why does this matter in therapy?  

Our healing is collective.  We are more than our individual lives. As a global community, we are navigating unprecedented challenges. The old ways of solving problems are entrenched in quagmires of oppression.  Our healing and liberation require tending of our own body-mind-hearts, and also our ruptured connections to Earth, ancestral roots, soul, and each other.  

There is a whole world longing to reclaim us.



I practice therapy for the purpose of liberation.

I support the neurodiversity paradigm and reject approaches that pathologize neurodivergence.
​

​
I am committed to ongoing work to decolonize psychology, recognizing that, since its inception, Western psychology has excluded valid and vital knowledge systems of BIPOC communities.

I work with folx from diverse life paths and intersecting identities. I welcome the fullness of your being into the therapy space, especially identities, contexts, histories, and experiences relevant to you.  I currently work with individual adults.  I have a long history of working with BIPOC and LGBTQIA2S+ communities as well as neurodivergent folx, especially those who are late-identified autistic, ADHD, or Highly Sensitive Persons. 
​
You can read more about my own identities and life journeys here. ​

​Below are some of the issues my clients and I work with together:

  • Navigating times of transition​
  • ​Finding ground in troubled times
  • Finding your path as a neurodivergent person
  • Claiming your autistic, ADHD, or AuDHD identities (especially AFAB & woman-identifying, gender non-conforming & late-identified)
  • Tending grief and loss
  • "Disenfranchised" and hidden griefs​
  • Ecological grief and mourning​
  • Identifying and reclaiming needs
  • Imposter syndrome ​
  • Liberation from internalized oppression
  • Internalized ableism
  • Feeling like a cultural misfit
  • Journeying with illness​​
  • Tending ancestral wounds of colonization
  • Tending intergenerational wounds and gifts

Our healing and liberation require tending of our own body-mind-hearts, and also our ruptured connections to Earth, ancestral roots, soul, and each other. ​
