Great to meet you!

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Career Coach with a passion for helping men and women thrive in their relationships with themselves and others. Barriers I can help you overcome include anxiety/stress, depression and adjusting to life challenges and relationship challenges (e.g., grow in assertiveness), both at home and in the workplace. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and can incorporate Christian spirituality, upon request.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to meet you where you are, in a non-judgmental way, and to create a safe environment conducive for the important psychological work that we will do together.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. My clients describe my therapeutic style as down to earth, direct, holistic, action-oriented and challenging, while providing them with practical tools and strategies that help them become the best versions of themselves.

What you can expect from me

I will partner with you to:

  • Reduce feelings of anxiety and depression & grief so you can thrive again
  • Identify your “voice” in work & personal relationships
  • Navigate difficult conversations
  • Understand and manage your anger better
  • Expand your definition of success to include more aspects of your authentic self, while helping you create a path to get there
  • Expand your social support system
  • Better manage expectations of yourself and others
  • Be more self-compassionate
  • Find more meaning in your life
