¡Mucho gusto! If you’ve been carrying a lot and wondering how to make sense of it all, therapy can be a place to slow down and finally have space for yourself. I’m a Catholic Christian therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, families, and children through trauma, grief, relationship struggles, family conflict, and difficult seasons of life. I’m also bilingual in Spanish and English, so you can express yourself in whichever language feels most comfortable, whether that means speaking Spanish, English, or naturally moving between both. I understand that culture, family, faith, and relationships can all shape how we experience life, and I want you to feel comfortable bringing those parts of yourself into therapy. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming space where you can talk openly, feel understood, and begin working through what has been weighing on you.

I believe therapy starts with getting to know you, not simply focusing on a diagnosis or a problem. We’ll talk about what you’re experiencing, where you feel stuck, and what you would like to be different. From there, we’ll build on your strengths and develop practical ways to manage difficult emotions, navigate relationships, communicate more effectively, and handle life’s challenges with greater confidence. My approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and collaborative, and I tailor our work to your needs, values, culture, and goals. If your Catholic Christian faith is important to you, we can also thoughtfully incorporate your faith into therapy. My goal is for our work to feel relevant to your real life, not like a one-size-fits-all treatment plan.

Your first session is simply a chance for us to get to know each other and begin figuring out what you need. I’ll listen to your story, ask questions about what brought you to therapy, and learn more about what has been happening in your life and relationships. We’ll talk about what you hope to change and begin identifying goals that feel meaningful to you. You don’t have to know exactly what to say or have everything figured out before you begin. Whether you feel most comfortable speaking English, Spanish, or both, there is room for your whole story here. If you’re ready to get started, schedule your first session today.
