About

As a therapist, I am deeply committed to fostering a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment where clients can embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery and growth. My approach is rooted in empowerment, exploration, and self-understanding, with the ultimate goal of helping you become the best version of yourself. As a first-generation Mexican-American, I carry a strong passion for serving minority and marginalized communities by promoting education and accessibility to therapy for all individuals. My experience spans across working with teenagers and adults facing various challenges, including issues related to racial identity, trauma, depression, anxiety, relationships, men's issues, and life transitions. Being a bilingual Spanish-speaking therapist, I offer a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed perspective to our sessions. I believe in the power of a multicultural and integrative therapeutic approach, tailored to your unique needs and experiences. No two treatment plans are alike, as our collaboration will guide us in discovering the most effective path toward your healing journey.
