About

Hello,
It takes a lot of courage to seek a therapist and by doing so you’ve already initiated that first step towards a path of healing and self-awareness. I can help guide you towards that awareness and build on your strengths. My approach is non-judgmental and grounded in a strong therapeutic relationship in which I work collaboratively to meet the unique goals of each individual. I have over 7 years of experience working in a wide range of settings from residential, school based and community mental health settings.
I draw upon Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, psychodynamic, and mindfulness theories depending on each person’s needs. I am fluent in Spanish and English and I have had the opportunity of working with a wide range population. Some of the issues I have worked with include: depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, family and relationship conflict, multi-cultural and intergenerational trauma, adult children of alcoholics (ACOA), life transitions, substance/alcohol use and dependency, co-occurring disorders, sexual abuse, LGBTQIA issues, trauma and self-harming behaviors.
I believe that the relationship between a therapist and client is central to your success; so, it is important to find the right match. I strive to create a safe space for my clients where they feel empowered and heard. If you’re ready to make that change in your life and put in the work, then I’ll be there to guide you through it.
