About

I have been in the mental health field for over 12 years. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I received training and focused on the following modes of treatment: attachment theory, play therapy, in-depth psychology, strength-based, trauma-informed, among other evidence-based models. Additionally, I have experience working in multidisciplinary settings providing collaborative quality care and psychotherapeutic treatment.

As a bilingual Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I’ve practiced in a wide range of settings from working in-home, and inpatient to outpatient environments, for non-profit and for-profit agencies. My experiences include treating clients dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, stress management, self-identity/esteem issues, and ADHD. I have worked extensively with families addressing struggles with co-parenting, adjustment to transitions, stage of life, parental separation, and blended families.

My therapeutic approach is client-centered and based on a humanistic perspective; to guide your process of personal growth. Providing a safe place for you, to explore and to utilize new tools to navigate and enrich yourself and your relationships. It is exciting for me to see clients try new strategies and arrive at new realizations to find relief in their symptoms and reach a renewed sense of confidence. My goal is to empower you to access your inner strengths to move forward with hope for the future.

In my leisure time, I retreat to nature by way of gardening, hiking, and running. I also enjoy traveling and learning about cultures and take great joy in eating and cooking various ethnically diverse cuisines while in the company of friends and family.

I look forward to hearing from you.
