Great to meet you!

I am dedicated to helping you achieve your therapeutic goals. My greatest strength lies in building a strong therapeutic rapport to truly understand who you are. I enjoy working with adolescents and young adults and have experience with children, incarcerated individuals, and adults.

My approach to therapy

My preferred therapeutic approaches include Person-Centered Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. As a Christian, I can offer a faith-based approach if that aligns with your preferences. I am skilled in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET).

What you can expect from me

I am fluent in Spanish and have knowledge of Brazilian Portuguese. I encourage you to be open and honest in sharing your therapeutic concerns and providing feedback on our sessions. Thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me. I look forward to meeting you soon!
