I work with individuals, couples, and families, focusing on relationship building, conflict and anger management, and coping with grief and loss. I help couples create a safe and nurturing bond that allows them to become close again and heal. No matter the issue that brings a couple, individual, or family into my office, they will all be learning a new way to look at relationship and be introduced to a toolkit of skills essential to staying in conversation and connection.

I am temporarily accepting additional clients who genuinely want to transform their life into something better. Is that you? I work with my clients in Spanish because it was the language that shaped our perceptions of the world and the people we lived with at an early age. Even if you grew up bilingual, Spanish was the language your mother and father used. Whether we are immigrants or were born in the United States, it is our ancestral Latino language that contains the roots of our current experience. It also contains the keys to breaking through barriers we are currently experiencing with our health, wealth, and relationships.

Has anyone ever mentioned that you're stronger than you think? Let's be real, sometimes being resilient feels like you're running a never-ending marathon. Each time you conquer one obstacle, another one pops up out of nowhere. Or maybe you've been wrestling with the same issues for what feels like forever, with no sign of relief in sight. It's only natural to wonder, "When will things start looking up for me?" and "Will I ever start feeling better? " Trust me, I get it! I am not merely the therapist sitting across the screen from you - truth be told, I have been you.
