I’m a bilingual therapist working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, and major life transitions. Many of the people I support feel overwhelmed by overthinking, internal pressure, difficulty managing stress, and the uncertainty of what comes next.

In our work together, I focus on helping you make sense of what’s happening internally and develop practical ways to respond to stress and emotions. I integrate cognitive, somatic, and neuroscience-informed approaches to support both emotional and nervous system regulation.

I believe therapy should feel human. It can be structured but still fit your individual needs. I offer a space where you can show up as you are, while also doing meaningful work that leads to real shifts in how you experience and respond to life.

Congratulations!!! You are taking your first step.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I feel that a healthy mind is key to an overall wellbeing. I feel that therapy is a collaborative effort between myself and my client. I have been in the mental health field for the last 25 years. I have been a practicing therapist for the last 4 years. Although I have worked with a wide array of clients, I have primarily been working with adult males for the last couple of years. I have worked with first responders, ex-military members and special operations members, as well as many others.
