I offer a relaxed, supportive environment where we explore the effects of cancer in life.
There are many struggles in life that bring people to therapy. I specialize in helping people who are battling cancer or trying to navigate their life post cancer. Living with cancer takes enormous strength and courage. Some people experience feelings of anxiety or depression during cancer treatment, while others struggle with finding a “new normal” after they are cancer free or in full remission. I work with those who want to regain the energy, desire, and stamina to forge ahead. And those who are ready to turn their fear into personal power so they can live a more peaceful, joyous life.

As a skilled LFMT, I can help families with a broad spectrum of problems including, school difficulties, childhood and adolescent troubles, effective parenting techniques, marital issues, divorce, life cycle changes, bereavement, learning disabilities, family violence, substance abuse, child abuse and incest.
I am a Latina Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 33 years of experience working with clients of all ethnic, economic, and religious backgrounds. As a LMFT, I have learned that to understand and help families, adults, adolescents, and children through emotional issues and crises, therapy is most effective when delivered within the family context. It is my belief that all families and individuals are their own experts, and as such, have unexplored resources and means. When effectively utilized, these resources help guide towards a mutually arrived solution.
