Great to meet you!

I'm a bilingual & bicultural therapist who has a deep love of service & healing. I'm passionate about my profession & working with clients who seek to improve their lives & reach their goals. I know that it takes courage to take the first step to make a change in your life & begin your healing journey, so I welcome & congratulate you for being here. I want you to know that you can heal & create a life that is fulfilling & meaningful. It would be my privilege to join you on your path to wellness.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I provide psychotherapy in English & Spanish, in person or online. I work with children, teenagers, adults, & seniors; in a safe, caring, non-judgmental, & positive environment. I am compassionate, creative, genuine, direct, and lighthearted. My multicultural background & life experiences influence my empathy & open-mindedness. I use the best scientifically driven therapies to create an individualized approach to integrate the treatment modalities that will benefit you on your healing journey.

What you can expect from our first session

My practice is a safe place, where you can find acceptance, genuine care & openness. My purpose is to develop a positive & trusting client-counselor working relationship that’s conducive to healing & growth. I help clients acquire a deeper understanding of themselves, develop problem-solving skills, become confident & resilient, heal & alleviate emotional pain, cope with difficult experiences & challenges; and find joy, self-love & peace of mind as they create a life that has meaning & purpose.
