I enjoy helping clients who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or relationship challenges and want a safe space to feel understood. My ideal client is someone looking to improve communication, deepen self-awareness, and create healthier patterns. I offer warmth, authenticity, and practical tools to help you navigate what’s holding you back. Together, we build clarity, resilience, and meaningful change so you can move through life with more confidence and balance.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist who has been practicing since 2009. I specialize in men's mental health issues, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I look forward to serving you on your healing journey and helping you find peace and balance in your life.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have spent the past eight years walking alongside individuals as they navigate some of life’s most difficult chapters. I have had the honor of supporting survivors of trauma and abuse, individuals living with depression, anxiety, and ADHD, victims of crime, and those carrying the unique challenges of immigration-related stress.
I believe every person has a story that deserves to be heard with compassion and without judgment. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to help you reconnect with the strength, resilience, and wisdom that already exist within you. Together, we create a space where healing can unfold, wounds can be understood, and hope can begin to take root again.
Whether you are carrying the weight of past experiences, feeling overwhelmed by the present, or searching for a path forward, you do not have to walk that journey alone.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have training in CBT, Seeking Safety, and Motivational Interviewing. I have been working as a Mental Health Clinician for the past 14 years. I have experience working with teenagers and adults. I am bilingual in English and Spanish. I have been told to have a calming and grounding presence. I use mindfulness to integrate the mind-body connection to help individuals find balance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Salinas
Searching for therapists in Salinas starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for therapy in Salinas for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Salinas therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show how a therapist describes their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.
In a smaller city like Salinas, local office availability may be more limited than in larger California markets. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in California. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you understand what sessions may be like and which therapist in Salinas, CA, feels like a practical fit.
Therapy in Salinas can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, see estimated costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
