As a first-generation Latina, I am deeply committed to supporting and empowering Latinx individuals on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. My personal experiences and cultural background inform my approach, allowing me to offer a unique perspective and a genuine understanding of the challenges and strengths that come with navigating life as part of the Latino community. My goal is to validate and honor the unique experiences of those who have often gone through life unseen, unheard or afraid of speaking up due to stigma regarding mental health.

I will help guide you through this process and take the lead. My approach is client-centered and adaptable. I meet each individual where they are, tailoring my care to their unique needs. Whether in inpatient or private practice settings, I've gained valuable insights into therapeutic styles.

Sometimes all it takes is an outside perspective to be the catalyst for change. But let’s be real, change can be hard, especially when we feel we “should” be able to do it on our own. If there’s one take away message here, it’s that you do not have to do the hard work alone. I hope to be the one by your side on this journey. I aim to treat adult individuals and couples who struggle with a variety of concerns including, but not limited to, depression, mood and anxiety disorders, perinatal mental health struggles, identity development, LGBTQIA+ and other minority group stressors, and life transitions.

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships, poor executive functioning, trauma, or other issues, you don't have to handle this alone. I'm committed to your well-being. You're entitled to your feelings and beliefs, and will always come first in this process. You don’t have to hide, please, or impress. You will be heard and accepted as you are, without judgment or labels. You are not your problem. You deserve to feel good. Knowing what happened to you is important but I don’t believe there’s something wrong with you. If you can't believe this for yourself yet, I'll believe it for you until you do.

When your relationship is suffering, you're suffering. Oftentimes, terribly so. Maybe the partner you used to feel so close to now seems more like a distant stranger. Maybe a betrayal has left you outraged and alone. Maybe all the fighting and miscommunication makes you wonder at times what you ever saw in this person at all.

My way of doing therapy involves insight-oriented exploration and problem solving, and an invitation to make deeper contact with core issues and inner healing potential via somatic experience and "parts work." I'm trained as an IFS therapist and can be an especially good fit for those with established mindfulness practices and an ability to tune into inner experience. While working with me you may find yourself looking at problems in a new way, with more curiosity and self compassion. Less judgement.

Are you struggling with authentically connecting with others and yourself? Do you often feel lost, isolated, rejected, abandoned, or riddled with self-doubt? Trauma and anxiety can have a profound impact on how we connect with others and ourselves. Our brains do a magnificent job of creating defense mechanisms to protect us during a crucial time of development and survival. When those defense mechanisms no longer serve us they can become obstacles in our lives and relationships, and can create damaging emotional patterns that leave us feeling lonely and misunderstood.

I work with individuals and families who are struggling with life adjustments, relationships challenges, anxiety and depression. I have a particular interest in supporting pregnant and parenting mothers, and have experience and training in supporting parents of young children. I also love working with young adults as they are navigating new relationships, whether with a romantic partner or a roommate, and how past family relationships may impact current ones. I have experience working with adolescents and adults struggling with addictive and compulsive behaviors, and seek to support people in developing more effective coping skills.

I help others actualize the change they desire. I believe all humans possess inherit worth and value and I use a person-first lens with clients. Therapy is a place to feel heard, connect in a genuine way, and practice relational living with a supportive professional. Are you a parent needing help because your teen is struggling? Maybe you are a teen who is questioning their identity, or an adult looking for help through life transitions. My hope for clients is they come as they are, be honest about what they need, and reconnect with their truest self for long-lasting change.

I work with individuals and couples wanting to work on anxiety, depression, family and relationship issues, conflict and communication, relational and religious trauma, grief, and low self-esteem. But what this really looks and feels like "people-pleasing" tendencies, shame, anger, fear of the unknown, and difficulty opening up with yourself and others. I am passionate about helping clients navigate these difficulties and helping them become unstuck.
