I am a bilingual, first-generation, Mexican-American LCSW with over a decade of experience as a mental health professional. I use a holistic and culturally-affirming approach that honors the whole-person. My specialty is helping BIPOC and first-generation adults make meaningful recovery and growth for the following: ADHD, anxiety/stress, body image/eating disorders, personal growth, and trauma.
My priority is to build a therapeutic partnership where you can show up authentically, maximize your strengths, and truly benefit from our time together. I am passionate in providing simplified education, tools, and options so you can determine the best path on how to create lasting growth and change. I want to understand what you want out of therapy and create realistic goals to help you get there.
You can expect for your voice to be heard in a warm, caring, and non-judgmental space. Together, we will find which style of therapy and strategies will benefit you the most. I have training and experience in a variety of evidence-based interventions including but not limited to: Mind/Body (Somatic) Healing, Self-Compassion and Mindfulness, Trauma-Resiliency Model, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
