I’m Adriana. Therapist. Educator. Queer. Immigrant. First-gen Professional.
I specialize in generational healing for people living in-between cultures, roles, languages, expectations, and dreams.

I support cycle breakers who are trying to do things differently in their families and lives while navigating the tension between belonging, responsibility, and choosing themselves.
My work is rooted in family systems, generational healing, and cultural context. I help clients understand where these dynamics come from so they can build relationships that feel more honest, emotionally regulated, and sustainable.
For Cycle Breakers, First-Gens, and Tenderhearted Overachievers Ready to Heal at the Root.
Therapy for folks navigating identity, boundaries, conflict, and intergenerational patterns.
My clients are:
First-gen professionals and adult children of immigrants carrying invisible pressure while figuring it out on their own
Eldest daughters and caretakers doing the emotional labor in their families
Adults who moved away for school or work and are now navigating distance, guilt, and shifting family roles
Couples stuck in familiar arguments while holding unspoken resentment or unmet needs
Individuals reparenting themselves and learning where their emotional patterns come from
Queer and bicultural couples building relationships that honor their identities and histories
Siblings and parent–adult child relationships seeking reconnection through grief, silence, or generational complexity
Families navigating mixed cultural or immigration experiences with care and intention
And often, they’re asking:
“How do I become more of myself, without letting go of where I come from?”
Generational Healing and Therapy for Real-Life Growth
INSIGHT & INTEGRATION
Understand how your past, family roles, and relationships continue to shape your present.
ROOTED IN HEALING
We trace what shaped you, including family history and cultural context, so you can loosen what no longer serves you.
GROWTH THAT LASTS
From insight to action. Less perfectionism. More self-compassion. More clarity in how you live and relate.
Let’s see if this space is right for YOU!
Therapy with me is sometimes a little soft (hello compassion). A little direct (hey accountability). Rooted, honest, and always relational.
You don’t have to show up polished. You don’t even have to know exactly what you need. We’ll figure that out together.
We’ll slow things down, build skills, hold the heavy, and laugh a little, too. I bring theory, trauma-informed care, and family systems insight. You bring your lived experience, your story, your rhythm, your truth.
This is shared labor, and it only works when the fit feels right.
This work may be a good fit for you if:
• You’re a first-gen adult or cycle breaker carrying invisible pressure
• You’re navigating boundaries, guilt, or shifting family roles
• You find yourself stuck in repeating dynamics in relationships
• You’re trying to build a family or life that looks different from the one you came from
• You want insight and practical change, not just awareness
“The work isn’t to become someone else. It’s to become more fully yourself, with clarity, with care, and on purpose.”
