Life as a Tapestry

The Meaning Behind

“Tapiz” means tapestry in Spanish — a name that reflects my belief that life is woven thread by thread, each day. These threads—each with their own color, texture, and weight—represent the experiences, emotions, and relationships that shape us.

As the founder and sole therapist at Tapiz Mental Health Services, I view therapy as a way to explore these threads with care and intention. I believe that the earliest threads, especially those formed in childhood and family relationships, often set the foundation for the patterns that follow.

Some threads are heavy and dark, representing pain or struggle. Others are bright and light, symbolizing joy, growth, and connection. Together, they tell a complex and deeply personal story. Through the therapeutic process, I help individuals, children, and families make sense of these threads—recognizing their meaning and choosing how they want to weave their future.

Therapy is a space to understand your past, heal from it, and mindfully create a tapestry that reflects resilience, connection, and healing.

“Every tapestry begins with a single thread. If you’re ready to start weaving a future of resilience, connection, and healing. I’m here to walk alongside you.”
