Great to meet you!

You might be the person everyone else depends on while quietly struggling yourself. Maybe your mind won't slow down, you overthink every decision, you're constantly distracted, or you're carrying stress that no one else seems to notice. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, anxiety, OCD, depression, or the pressure of trying to keep it all together, my goal is to help you feel understood, regain control, and start enjoying life again. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and strive to create a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment.

My approach to therapy

My Approach to therapy is building something useful as I believe therapy should leave you with something and not be just another conversation. Together, we'll identify the thoughts, emotions and behaviors that keep you feeling sad, anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, or hard on yourself. Then together we replace them with practical tools tailored to you! Tools and skills you can actually use when you need them. My goal is to help you find and be your best self.

My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to each person's goals. I draw from CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based techniques.

What you can expect from me

You don't need to have everything figured out before we meet. The first session is simply a chance to talk about what's been weighing on you, what you want to change, and what's getting in the way. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and with a clear sense that meaningful change is possible.
