Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with youth, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, and relationship challenges. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can slow down, make sense of what’s going on, and start to feel more grounded.

My approach is affirming and empowering, while also being direct. I’ll help you feel heard and understood, and I’ll also gently challenge patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll build insight, develop practical tools, and create meaningful, lasting change.

My approach to therapy

My approach is guided by a systemic and behavioral lens, meaning we look at both the patterns shaping your experiences and practical ways to create change. I also consider how culture, identity, and lived experience impact your story, and I tailor our work to what feels most helpful and relevant to you.

I offer services in both English and Spanish and provide virtual sessions.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know you and what’s bringing you to therapy. We’ll talk through your current concerns, begin identifying patterns, and clarify what you’d like to work toward.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. I’ll guide the conversation so it feels comfortable and productive. My goal is for you to leave with more clarity, a sense of direction, and a feel for what it’s like to work together.
