Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 15 years of experience in the behavioral health field. I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults and adults who are navigating a wide range of emotional, social, and mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, anger, low self-esteem, and family-related issues.

My approach is client-centered and grounded in evidence-based practices, with a focus on creating a supportive and collaborative therapeutic environment. I believe in meeting clients where they are and helping them build the skills and insight needed to make meaningful, lasting changes in their lives.

I hold both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Psychology, I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I strive to provide culturally responsive care to meet the diverse needs of my clients.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs. I work to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors at your own pace. I integrate evidence-based approaches such as CBT, Solution Focus, and mindfulness to help you gain insight, develop coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. We’ll work together to understand what’s holding you back and move toward your goals.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to feel heard, supported, and leave with practical tools and deeper insight. We'll work together to understand patterns, build healthier coping strategies, and support meaningful growth—both in and outside of sessions.
