Therapist

Seeking therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe that healing begins through genuine connection, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they navigate life's challenges and work toward meaningful change.

As a bilingual therapist (English and Spanish), I have experience working with adults, children, adolescents, couples, families, veterans, and at-risk youth. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals facing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, parenting concerns, abuse, neglect, and co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. These experiences have strengthened my passion for helping people build resilience, discover their strengths, and create lasting, positive change.

I recognize that every person's story is unique, so I tailor therapy to meet your individual needs and goals. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and other therapeutic approaches to help you gain insight, develop practical coping skills, and move toward the life you want.

I am certified in various evidence based practices. I have also received specialized training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), allowing me to support individuals and couples through trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions with proven, effective treatment approaches.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, working through past experiences, navigating relationship difficulties, or simply looking for support during a challenging season of life, I look forward to helping you find healing, growth, and hope.

I'm Mary, and I want you to know that whatever's bringing you here — anxiety that won't quiet down, a relationship that's fraying, grief you can't shake, or patterns you keep repeating despite your best efforts — you don't have to figure it out alone. I've worked with individuals, couples, families, and teens facing some of life's hardest chapters, and I genuinely believe that the right support at the right time changes everything.

I'm California-licensed and offer telehealth sessions statewide, which means flexible, private care from wherever you're most comfortable. I accept Aetna, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, and Carelon Behavioral Health, and I'm happy to help you understand your benefits before your first session.
