Great to meet you!

I am a bicultural, anti-racist, social justice-oriented, Latina therapist with a focus on supporting folx in navigating the stress and trauma experienced in a system that was not created for us. I received my Bachelor and Master of Science in Clinical Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin.

My approach to therapy

I make it my goal to foster a trusting, relational, and empowering environment for the people I work with so they feel in control of their healing. I value creativity in my sessions since therapy is not a one size fits all approach. I use a mix of evidence-based therapy modalities dependent on a person's wants and needs, while also being mindful of cultural factors. You have the power to decide what tools you'd like to use and practice!

What you can expect from me

I will be by your side as we unpack the complex emotions that arise when living in identities that are "othered". I want to invite you to work with me to make sense of your inner world and to leave our sessions with feelings of clarity, calmness, and celebration of what makes you unique.
