Great to meet you!

I’m a bilingual (Spanish/English) Latinx Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over seven years of clinical experience, including three years practicing under a limited permit and four years as an independently licensed clinician. I offer a safe, inclusive, and culturally responsive space for healing and growth.

I provide therapy for adolescents, adults, and older adults, supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and life transitions. Whether you’re processing past experiences or seeking to build healthier patterns in the present, my goal is to meet you where you are—with empathy, respect, and collaboration.

My approach to therapy

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Couples Therapy. I emphasize Person-Centered Care, tailoring each session to your unique strengths, cultural background, and values. I’m also committed to LGBTQIA+ affirming care, ensuring that therapy is a space where all aspects of your identity are welcomed and supported.

We'll be able to identify the approach that best supports your needs.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy and collaborate on a path forward. Together, we'll challenge unhelpful thoughts in a supportive space and work toward meaningful, lasting change.
