My experience enables me to offer effective outpatient, individualized, psychological care. I treat a number of mental health disorders, and provide a neutral ground to individuals, families, children, and couples. Parenting is not an easy road to navigate. I am effective in helping parents learn new skills to help them manage behavioral concerns with children and teens; as well as teaching new strategies to children and teens to help improve cohesiveness within the family system. Traumatic events can feel paralyzing. I am passionate in working through trauma to help an individual to find their inner strength, and happiness again.

Many of us don't feel comfortable in our own skin, feelings of anxiety, depression, unworthiness and hopelessness evolve. It may be challenging to voice our wants and desires in many of our relationships. We may be fighting with our significant other over the same thing over and over again and yet never feel heard.

If you are asking yourself “Is there hope”? The answer is "YES"! If you are experiencing relationship difficulties, or have been betrayed or abandoned, feel unseen, unheard, or misunderstood, healing is possible. You can stop accepting negative behaviors from those closest to you, avoiding conflict by pretending things are fine when they are not or are you the one lashing or acting out? I welcome marriages in crisis. I am a Christian therapist but I see all beliefs or none and I believe together we can find that hope.

Change can be stressful. LIFE can be stressful! Sometimes, the transition might be the birth of a child, a new job, a new relationship or it could involve the loss of a loved one, or coping with a family member being ill. I am particularly passionate about helping women, especially those entering parenthood, those living with grief & loss or those entering a new stage of life. If you feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, sadness or even hopelessness, you do not have to feel alone. Those recurring thoughts of self doubt or painful relational patterns CAN be changed.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of adult life? Balancing your career, relationships, and responsibilities can feel like an endless struggle. Add in anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma and life can feel even more daunting. You're tired of questioning whether you're 'doing life right' and feeling like you’re not where you ‘should’ be. You want to build greater self-confidence and clarity about your life direction, but you're unsure where to begin.

Young adults and couples often come to me seeking help with communication and strategies to better manage the curve balls life throws. We all have ups and downs and those downs can come with a lot of pain. I am passionate about helping clients gain insight, create healthier relationships, and navigate difficult life transitions. Being of Hispanic descent and speaking Spanish fluently allows me to provide services in Spanish as well as connect with culturally sensitive topics that can come up during sessions.

Out of a place of struggle or hopelessness, much can be discovered and learned. Having a witness to your life who listens without judgment can help remove barriers, so you are in a more hopeful place. There will be ups and downs through the therapeutic journey, and I am here to support you, as you develop awareness and understanding in order to make healthy choices. I will listen to your stories, perhaps offer a different perspective, practice coping skills, and help you discover how you can participate in your hopes to make them happen.

Throughout our lives, we carry within us the voices, the gaze, acceptance or disapproval, the expectations, and the praise or criticism of those who have raised us and occupied our lives. Therapy can help us discover and clarify these powerful experiences and grow in our understanding of how they motivate us, giving us freedom to make more authentic decisions in our daily lives. I view therapy as an opportunity to heal, receive support, solve problems, improve relationships, and escape problems and patterns that seem to reappear over time.

I firmly believe in the value of each person, and their capacity to change for the better. It is often difficult to know how to initiate and maintain positive change, though. I enjoy partnering with clients to increase insight into what has led to the issues they bring to me. Whether that client is dealing with addiction, trauma, depression, or another issue, finding an individually-tailored path to positive change is the goal.
