Hey there, I’m Noemí.

Welcome to Stillness Therapy® — my virtual therapy practice

I’m a bilingual Spanish speaking therapist in Los Angeles and Long Beach. I provide individual therapy and immigration psychological evaluations throughout California, Colorado, and Texas.

I’m most passionate about empowering womenLGBT+/queer individuals, and adult children of immigrants, who have felt misunderstood or mistreated, develop a solidified sense of self and feel confident. I enjoy collaborating with those who are curious, open and ready to initiate changes that align their actions with their desires, needs, and values. I’m here for those without elders to turn to, because growing older doesn't always mean growing kinder and wiser. I’m here for those who feel compelled to embark on the painful yet rewarding journey to break generational patterns and nurture their own inner wisdom. There is no shame in speaking your truth. I’m here to hold space for your feelings and needs, help you shift your perspective, and integrate all parts of yourself, especially the parts you’ve shunned away. I’m excited to support you on your self-discovery journey.

Virtual therapy sessions available for older teens, adults, and older adults (17-80+)

it’s drilled into us that stillness is unproductive, but it’s within these resting states that other processes do their silent work
