I am a Latinx therapist who specializes in trauma and the healing journey that follows. My approach is grounded in both professionalism and personal experience. Having done my own therapy work, I understand the courage it takes to face painful experiences, navigate life's challenges, and commit to personal growth.

I recognize that healing is not always a linear process. Growth often involves discomfort, vulnerability, and persistence. Because of this, I strive to create a compassionate, culturally responsive space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported as they work toward meaningful change.

Whether you are processing trauma, navigating life transitions, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, authenticity, and respect for your unique experiences.

You deserve support that meets you where you are and helps you get where you want to be. As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I empower individuals to overcome anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and other mental health challenges. With experience treating PTSD, burnout, OCD, panic attacks, anger management concerns, substance use and addiction, gender identity issues, and major life transitions, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs. Therapy can be the beginning of a healthier, more fulfilling chapter—and I'd be honored to support you.

I provide an inclusive, affirming, and culturally responsive space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. Through ongoing training in anti-racism, spirituality, and LGBTQIA+ affirming care, I strive to offer compassionate, evidence-based support. I believe you are the expert in your life, and I am here to support your healing and growth.

My approach to clients is to see them both as individuals and also within the systems they operate in: familial, community, work-related, societal, or other. I help clients address personal issues in the context of their interpersonal relationships. I strive to support my clients in bringing to light their impact on others, and others’ impact on them while giving clients the skills to heal relational wounds and build healthier, meaningful connections. I work to help her clients connect with their values and find joy.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 14 year experience in the mental health field. I specialize in supporting individuals who are committed to their emotional healing. I have experience in working with age groups ranging from children to adults, LGBTQ+ individuals, trauma survivors, and those who seek to live their best lives. In order to support the individuals I work with, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-Based, and Person-Centered approaches.

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.
