I myself have gone through tons of Narcissistic Abuse. I was born into a family that has lots of these tendencies. You know, the whole silent treatment, emotional unavailability, unempathetic responses to trauma, complete violation of your rights as children to live innocently and in peace... I mean you name it, I have experienced. Through life, I have been replicating the same relationships in my romantic partners. Unable to communicate with them, being emotionally sabotaging, at some points my relationships were dangereous and I still 'loved' them!
I have thankfully undergone many years of therapy, self-analyzing, studying for 20 years or so, providing help to others, and learning about myself - this has really helped me.
​
I can help you!

I specialize in Narcissistic Abuse Recovery, Attachment Injuries, Undiagnosed ADHD, Domestic Violence, OCD, Depression and Anxiety, Sexual Discomfort and Sex therapy, Sociopathic Relationships, Sexual Trauma, & Childhood Trauma Psychology.
The work I do is to help people understand how their own mental patterns are constantly creating their own life experiences. All of them! The good experiences and the so called "bad' experiences. Also, we work together to figure out how these same mental patterns are contributing to the ease and dis-ease in our lives - from vocational stress to individual dating coaching, I am here to help you accomplish all of your psychotherapeutic goals! This is all really exciting because you HOLD ALL OF THE POWER!

The workshop and support group was an amazing way to learn about Narcissistic Abuse. It opened up my eyes to things I could not understand before. I was grateful to hear about all of the experiences. Learning about the differences between Narcissists, Sociopaths, and Psychopaths was so important to me to break free from the abusive relationship.

Working with Raquel Soteldo in her Narcissistic Abuse Workshop really helped me heal from the traumatic experiences. I learned to put in place self-care routines and to protect myself from those who abused me. I learned about Boundaries and being assertive. Thankfully, I was able to leave that [partner].

Learning with Raquel was essential to my recovery. Honestly, I feel that I am more empowered now. I thank my lucky stars because I really was blinded for 20 years. I am now co-parenting and it is easier now than it was before the workshop with Raquel!
