My approach to therapy

I believe therapy works best as a partnership, where you have an active role in shaping your goals & treatment. I integrate approaches like DBT, CBT, CFT, Mindfulness, & Psychoanalytic Therapy to create personalized strategies that support your growth, healing, & lasting change. My goal is to provide a space where you feel empowered, understood, & supported.

What you can expect from me

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you’re not alone. I provide a safe, inclusive space for LGBTQIA2S+, Latinx, and BIPOC communities. With cultural understanding and empathy, we’ll navigate challenges, explore emotions, and begin your healing journey on your terms
