Great to meet you!

I’m a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who provides therapy in both Spanish and English, from colloquial to professional levels. My work has included supporting individuals facing HIV/AIDS-related challenges, domestic violence, substance use, loneliness, suicidal thoughts, dual diagnosis, sexuality-related concerns, aging-related issues, and the broader impact these experiences can have on families and support systems. Across community, academic, and clinical settings in Mexico and the U.S., I’ve built a strong foundation in helping people navigate both personal suffering and societal distress.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is person-centered, respectful, and grounded in trust. I believe clients’ needs, background, beliefs, and values deserve care and sensitivity. By building rapport and creating a safe, confidential space, we can explore emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and circumstances while supporting growth, resilience, and meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, my focus is on getting to know you, understanding what feels most important, and beginning to build the trust that makes therapy effective. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you while identifying your needs, strengths, and goals for support. If you’re ready to begin, I invite you to reach out and schedule a session.
