I have been seeing Delfina for about a year now. I love going to her because it’s not like normal therapy. She uses art and music as a way of healing. Recently we tried somatic therapy.(Somatic therapy is a holistic therapy that studies the relationship between the mind and body in regard to psychological past. The theory behind somatic therapy is that trauma symptoms are the effects of instability of the Autonomic nervous system. Past traumas disrupt the ANS.)I was actually really surprised as to how relaxing and healing it was. I laid down as Delfina placed her hand on my kidneys and other targeted areas like the heels and neck. We talked as she held her hand on my back which released a lot of negative energy. I could feel a huge difference when we were done. I felt light calm and grounded. I felt my mind slow down and let the racing thoughts pass. If you are looking for a therapist I would definitely recommend Delfina. I look forward to our session every week! Before I used to dread going to therapy but Delfina is such a wonderful and intelligent person I learn something new every week! I love her as a person and therapist so don’t hesitate making an appointment. Your mental health will be forever changed!

Delfina came highly recommended to me and having seen her I now can highly recommend her myself! She is very kind, spiritual and gentle, yet also very perceptive, insightful and sees to the heart of the matter. She helped me get clear and work through some sticky issues. She suggested I try expressing what I was feeling through painting during sessions. All the supplies were there. It was so interesting and helpful to see a visual of my emotions. Delfina is so warm and caring, with an impressive background and experience. Check her out!

Delfina was my psychotherapist for 3+ years. She walked with me through a major life transformation and I never doubted her ability to hold me through it. A deep level of presence, love and creativity. She is an artist and uses Expressive Arts(sandtray, drawing, movement) in her work. She is direct, warm, comforting and deep. Buddhist, yogi artist, lots of life experience from multiple angles. Also does EMDR and Hypnosis. Highly recommend her work. V. Tate
