About

I am a bilingual, Spanish-speaking, licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience. My counseling style is caring, interactive, and reflective. I treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I use cinematherapy as a form of psychoeducation to promote a parallel process that fosters growth with the bonus of entertainment. I use creativity and engage in my client's unique learning style to promote growth and awareness into their own personal issues.
