Whether you’re facing depression, anxiety, or life changes, we’ll work together to overcome them. I offer immediate availability with flexible hours and ensure every session is filled with empathy and care. Fluent in Spanish, I’m ready to help you on your journey. I love pets, gardening, and baking!

A bit about my approach to therapy

I provide therapy creating a warm and authentic space for you to explore challenges and achieve your goals. My approach is personalized and rooted in evidence-based techniques, focusing on supporting women as they navigate the complexities of caring for themselves while caring for others. Together, we’ll work on building coping skills, improving self-care practices, and empowering you to find balance and fulfillment in your life.

Services are available via telehealth for clients in North Carolina
