Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in the Bay Area of California. I see clients both in person in San Francisco and virtually throughout the state. I enjoy working with people of all ages and believe in the power of the therapist-client relationship. I believe that my greatest strengths as a provider are my genuine caring nature, my commitment to helping you understand yourself, and the insights I have into brain science

My approach to therapy

I love working with adolescents and adults who are seeking to learn about themselves, improve their self-image, and grow relationships both with themselves and others. I find that clients who put in work outside of the therapy session are the most successful. Once a connection, rapport, and trust are established, I believe the work can begin.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a collaborative session in which they will have an active participant in achieving goals and gaining insights.
