I believe every relationship holds the capacity to heal, grow, and transform. If you’ve found your way here, it probably means you’re ready for change. You don’t have to face it alone. My passion is helping couples break free from painful cycles, rebuild trust, and rediscover the closeness that first brought them together. Clients often tell me that what makes my work different is the balance of honesty and compassion I bring into the room. I won’t shy away from the hard truths, but I deliver them with care and a deep commitment to helping you thrive.

Reaching out for help can be challenging for many. As psychotherapy aims at positive changes you desire, I am honored to provide a safe place for your self-exploration and reflection in which you can gain your inner peace and change you long for. Being specialized in trauma, PTSD, sexual abuse and domestic violence, I can offer some resolution in your trauma work. Trauma can penetrate not only your emotional well-being but also almost every facet of your life.

Sitting with people during their most vulnerable and uncertain moments is an honor I hold deeply. For the past 15 years, my work as a clinical social worker has centered on supporting adults and seniors through anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, stress, burnout, and complex life challenges. Much of my background includes working with individuals navigating serious health concerns and other life-altering experiences, which has shaped my ability to help you build a secure, empowering foundation for your own healing. I believe in taking the time to truly understand each client — your history, your strengths, your pain, and the patterns that have shaped your life. Therapy is not rushed; it is a space where growth unfolds through trust, consistency, and thoughtful exploration. Clients often share that they feel genuinely cared for and understood in our work together. I approach therapy with steadiness, warmth, and deep respect for your pace, while also helping you move toward meaningful and lasting change. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and value creating a culturally responsive space where all aspects of your identity are welcomed and respected.
