You have been the steady one for so long that nobody asks how you are doing. I am a licensed clinical social worker, uent in English and Spanish, with experience in crisis, chronic mental health conditions, substance use, and trauma. I start with what already works for you. For trauma and PTSD, I use Cognitive Processing Therapy and trauma-focused CBT to help you make sense of what happened and loosen its grip, and the same skills help when anxiety or grief take over. For parents, Parent Management Training and behavior management give you calm, consistent ways to respond when a child's behavior or ADHD runs the house.

I have experience in crisis, chronic mental health conditions, substance use, and trauma. I start with what already works for you and use Cognitive Processing Therapy, trauma-focused CBT, and Parent Management Training when they t. Expect plain language and a steady pace.

Our first session moves at your pace. I'll ask what brought you in and what you hope will change, and you choose how much to share. Whether you're in crisis, living with a long-term condition, or working through trauma or substance use, I'm in this with you for the long haul. We'll leave with a clear next step and a plan that fits your life. We can work in the language that feels most natural to you.
