Great to meet you!

Hola! If you are looking for a psychotherapist who is empathetic, open-minded, occasionally funny, and most importantly someone who will push you take the driver seat in your own life, then I'm the therapist for you. I’m here to help you to take back ownership of your own life when your symptoms have made you feel powerless.

My approach to therapy

I am trained in CBT, ACT, DBT, CPT, and the ISSTD model for treatment of complex trauma and dissociation. I have extensive experiencing working with people who suffer from complex trauma and dissociation. I also have experience working with people who suffer from depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, thought disorders, and other behavioral issues.

What you can expect from me

I utilize a person-centered and multicultural perspective when working with individuals. Please reach out and we can start working on your goals.
