Hi, I'm Noel, and I'm glad you're here. I'm a bilingual psychologist who works with Spanish-speaking adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and the stress that comes with major life changes. I've spent 16 years sitting with people through some of the heaviest moments of their lives, and one thing I've learned is this: the people who feel the most overwhelmed are often the ones carrying the most strength they haven't yet had room to use. That's where I come in. I work entirely via telehealth, so you can connect with me from anywhere in California — from the comfort and privacy of your own space.

I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying pain, uncertainty, or self-doubt. But I believe, as a wise old wizard once said, “Happiness can be found even in the darkest of places, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” My role is to help you find that light again. I work with Gen Z and Millennial adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more. Through integrative, culturally responsive care, I combine evidence-based psychiatry with holistic strategies to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered to create a life that aligns with your true self.

We all struggle at times with feelings of unresolved hurt, anxiety, depression, and anger. These feelings can rob us of the joy we might normally experience in our selves and our relationships. It is never easy to admit to having personal issues or to examine our past experiences. We all want to be heard and know that someone is listening to us. We want to have confidence in our relationships that they are healthy, loving and dependable. Sometimes these questions are more fundamental. What are we doing with our lives? We all want to be whole, confident in who we are and in our relationships. We want to be our best selves.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety and depression, including overthinking, low motivation, feeling overwhelmed, and a loss of interest in daily life.

Many of my clients come in feeling mentally exhausted, stuck in their thoughts, or unsure why things feel harder than they should. I work with adults of all ages, but I have a strong understanding of the challenges that often come up in early adulthood and major life transitions.

My goal is to help you better understand what’s going on and give you a clear, realistic path forward.

Hello! My name is Danielle, and I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 10 years. Too often, we can become overwhelmed by the pressures of life, and that is where therapy can help. It may be time to prioritize your own mental health, and coming here is an important first step. I’m proud of you for taking it.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, family issues, LGBTQIA+ concerns, relationship challenges, PTSD, stress, grief and loss, ADHD, anger, substance use, and major life transitions. My focus in treatment is helping you feel supported while we better understand what you are carrying and what you hope will change. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your relationship, or your family, I look forward to meeting you and helping you move toward healing and growth.
