Emotions, Sensations, and the Human Experience

Therapy is a courageous step toward healing. Asking for support — whether through individual therapy, group work, or community spaces — fosters growth, curiosity, and connection.

At Tailored for Change, we offer individual therapy, trauma therapy, group therapy, and holistic healing resources, including workbooks and online courses, to support your mental wellness journey.

Our work centers Awareness, Authenticity, Vulnerability, Accountability, and Courage to help you navigate life’s challenges with clarity and confidence.

All services are available in English, Spanish, and Spanglish.

About Nancy

Healing is not passive. It is collaborative, active, and rooted in curiosity. I bring together evidence‑based modalities, ancestral wisdom, and embodied practices to help you reconnect with your inner truth.

What we Explore Together
The stories you’ve inherited
The patterns you learned to survive
The emotions living in your body
The parts of you longing to be seen
The wisdom carried through your lineage

I challenge with compassion.
I soothe with intention.
I hold space for your truth while guiding you back to yourself.

Together, we cultivate Self‑TRUST, the foundation of your transformation.

My journey in the mental health field has been shaped by curiosity, passion, disappointments and lived experiences. Through the years' I've learned that I have been privileged to train in and integrate:
EMDR therapy
Trauma therapy
Gestalt therapy
Family Constellations
Somatic and experiential practices
Substance Abuse and Addictions counseling
The Daring Way

Each modality was intuitively chosen, and I am grateful that they complement each other, offering you a holistic and tailored healing experience and offering me awareness, self-trust and the ability to share it all with you.

My Role in Your Journey

You are the expert of your own life. My role is to be your compass — guiding you as you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with honesty and compassion.

Together, we gently challenge:
self‑imposed judgments
internalized pressures
people‑pleasing patterns
beliefs rooted in trauma

We focus on your goals through mindfulness, authenticity, vulnerability, experimentation and the power of embracing your whole self.

These elements support not only your individual healing, but also how your loved ones experience you.

My intention is to create a nurturing environment where you can discover the tools and insights that resonate with you — empowering you to move through life with confidence and grace.

As I always tell my clients;
My goal is not for you to hear my voice or make statements like"Nancy would say/tell me", but to strengthen your own.
To complete our journey together with your Empowered, Self-Trusting voice, "I say", " I Believe" , " I Know".

I am straight forward.
I challenge.
I push.
I soothe
I model curiosity and compassion so you can learn how your body communicates with you, honor your true willingness, and recognize what you are ready to release.

If you’re seeking a therapist who understands your lived experience and can offer culturally grounded, compassionate and specialized mental health support, I invite you to reach out.

Frequently asked questions

What is therapy like with you?

Therapy with me is experiential, relational, embodied, culturally grounded, and guided by deep curiosity. You don’t have to translate yourself, shrink, or filter your truth here. We explore what’s happening in your body, your emotions, your lineage, and your lived experience — at a pace that complements and challenges you.

What will we focus on in therapy?

We start with your loudest parts as we begin to explore and keenly listen to the subtle quiet parts that may or may not be supporting you.

the patterns you learned to survive
your emotional and somatic responses
what your body communicates
what you’re ready to release or reclaim
how your culture, identity, and lineage shape your relationships and coping

Our work centers awareness, authenticity, vulnerability, accountability, and self‑TRUST.

Do you use specific therapeutic approaches?

Yes — intentionally and holistically.
I integrate:

EMDR
Gestalt
Somatic and experiential modalities
Mindfulness
Family Constellations
Trauma‑informed and culturally grounded practices
Being human

Each modality is used with intention, not rigidity.

Will therapy be challenging?

Sometimes, yes — because healing requires honesty, presence, and accountability.
But we move gently.
You will be supported, respected, and never rushed.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes. We accept BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Carelon, and Oscar for individual therapy and support groups.
You are responsible for your co-payments and deductible responsibilities.

What if I’m nervous about starting therapy?

That’s completely normal.
We’ll begin with a free 15‑minute fit call, where you can ask questions, share your concerns, and get a sense of whether this feels aligned.
You deserve to feel safe, seen, and supported — from the very first step.
You get to hear my voice, accent, cadence and see if it vibes with you.

Do you offer therapy in Spanish or Spanglish?

Yes — therapy is available in English, Spanish, and Spanglish. I say Spanglish because at times there's no real translation for what's being experienced.
You are welcome to show up in the language that reflects who you are particularly during trauma work, body work and ancestral work.

How do I know if we’re a good fit?

If you value honesty, cultural grounding, emotional depth, embodiment, curiosity, and accountability… We’ll work beautifully together with natural hiccups.

Begin your Journey with Support
You deserve a space where your whole self is welcomed. Whenever you're ready.
