I'm a bilingual Latina Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in supporting BIPOC adults navigating anxiety, burnout, stress, and the challenge of balancing family expectations with their own needs. Many of my clients are first-generation professionals who feel overwhelmed by the pressure to succeed, care for others, and "hold it all together" while quietly struggling with self-doubt, people-pleasing, or guilt.
