My name is Marcela, I was born and raised in Mexico City and have been living in Boston for the last 26 years , I'm very comfortable in English and Spanish. I studied the career twice. My approach to therapy is co-constructivist, collaborative, strength based and solution oriented. I believe you are the expert in your story and I'm here to walk with you and offer you companionship and guidance as needed. Altogether, I have over twenty years of experience, 4 of them in Massachusetts and I've been in 12 step based recovery for 16 years. I believe in teletherapy! Telehealth is real, in many ways, is more efficient than doing it face to face. Think of me as a family PCP, I'm a generalist. I am always deeply interested in people and their stories, I would love to hear yours. If you are looking for help among us, I already believe in you! You are the kind of people that get the help they need and get better. Looking forward to meeting you.

I have been working with Marcela for several months and she is wonderful! She is the first therapist I have worked with who not only listens fully but also offers direct, honest feedback and advice that has truly helped to reframe my thinking when I most need it. She has helped me effectively work through multiple concerns and I'm grateful for her consistency and openness.

Marcela is the most wise and comforting person I have in my life to talk to! Whenever I am stressed about something and I can't think through it myself, she always offers me another perspective and I always end up feeling a lot better about the situation after. Marcela legitimately makes my life better, and I highly recommend having her as your therapist.
