I am also particularly interested on working with immigrant Hispanic families; I believe that my personal experience aids the therapeutic process as I am aware of differences regarding language, culture, and family structures.
I am a bilingual (English and Spanish) therapist with extensive experience treating trauma, disrupted childhood attachment, anxiety, and depression in school-aged children, adolescents, and young adults. I believe that the road to healing requires support, acceptance, and trust; therefore, I strive to provide a safe and collaborative environment where my clients feel free to explore their thoughts and emotions. My goal is to help and guide my clients and their families while providing extensive feedback, psychoeducation, and therapy.

“I’m not sure why I just shared all of that with you” is a comment I have heard many times in my life and is one of the reasons I chose mental health counseling as a profession. When someone is hurting and senses they are in the presence of another who is truly curious about and accepting of them, they feel seen and understood. This is where healing takes place.

Big, important life changes can be overwhelming and difficult to work through by yourself. Whether it is the natural growth and self-discovery that occurs during adolescence and young adulthood, or an intentional (or unforeseen!) change of trajectory later in life, having a safe space to explore and work through these changes with a therapist can be both healing and empowering. Clients that are struggling with anxiety, depression, codependency, relationship conflicts, or family of origin issues can find healing and hone their coping skills with consistent therapy.

One of the greatest pains in life is not knowing. Not knowing how to deal with a challenging situation, such as a troubled relationship, a traumatic experience, or unexplained mood swings. Maybe you simply want help, for yourself or someone you know who may be dealing with a difficult life transition. Well, there is one thing you should know, there's HOPE (not just a cliché).

Hispanic and Latino Therapists

What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?

An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?

A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.

How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?

Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.

How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?

Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?

The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
