In my private practice, I welcome both adults and teens.
I offer therapy services that are both culturally-sensitive and compassionate. I can help you If you are having feelings of anxiety, depression, or have experienced a traumatic loss or event in your life. As a therapist, I am always aware of cultural/minority issues. As the child of immigrant parents, I know firsthand about the ways immigration affects ourselves and our families. I also understand the feeling of being both between and a part of different cultures.

Finding a therapist can be difficult, especially finding a therapist who looks like you and can relate to struggles you face with. Being a young male in todayʻs society can be difficult and often times problems are over looked due to the stigma of ʻman upʻ. Being a parent and adjusting to the changes of a growing family, strain on a marriage, issues from childhood impacting parenting can be difficult to identify and reflect on. Being an athlete and finding space to process how issues outside of the sport could be impacting your performance can be outside of your comfort zone because personal or athletic lives tend to be seperate.

I consider myself to be bi-cultural. Having been raised as a first generation American in a Latin family, I can identify with the the mentality of someone living within two "worlds". Transitioning from one culture to another with seemingly different values, beliefs and language. I can easily understand the struggle that maintaining, and existing in both, can sometimes be. I've come to perceive and appreciate it as the gift of having a "bridge" that allows connection to, and understanding of, different aspects of people and life.

You feel like you always have to do more. More at work; More in your relationships. Many people depend on you- your family, co-workers, and friends. You're tired and burnt out. You know you need to take a break but you’re afraid of failing or being rejected. It feels like everything you do is never enough. You just don’t feel enough. These thoughts keep cycling through and you can't see a way forward. You want to make a change but it's overwhelming. When you've had to do everything on your own, it feels like you need to make a drastic change. This is not the only option.

Counseling and psychotherapy can be the most rewarding gifts we give to ourselves. A gift of self-care where hope, change, and personal transformation can become a reality. Depending on the situation and individual preferences, counseling can be brief and solution-focused or longer in length.
