I specialize in working with clients dealing with the complexities of ADHD, anxiety, and depression. It’s not uncommon to feel overwhelmed or unsure about the path ahead. Please know that you are not alone in this journey. As a mixed-race, Mexican American therapist, I deeply appreciate the role that cultural identity plays in shaping our experiences. I bring this understanding into my practice, allowing me to connect with clients on a level that respects their unique backgrounds and perspectives. I believe that our identities are multifaceted, each part of who we are contributes to our healing process.
My focus is on creating a warm and inviting space where you can feel safe to share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. From a relational psychodynamic and psychoanalytic perspective, we’ll explore the intricacies of your experiences and how they intertwine with your identity. I am here to walk alongside you, offering encouragement & support.
Your well-being is my priority and is the heart of our work together. You are worthy of this journey. I want you to feel empowered, understood, and validated throughout our journey. Currently, I am a psychological associate and PsyD candidate, working under the licensed supervision of Dr. Alique Bedikian, Psy.D. (PSY 31843).

I often use a psychoanalytic approach in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and decide the most appropriate ways to help you progress. We'll look at how your family history and life experience have impacted you in the here and now. I'll help you learn to understand your feelings and attempt to put words to experiences that have yet to be named.
