Welcome! I work with individuals who are in the process of self-discovery, experience relational issues, or are being impacted by mood disorders, health issues, discrimination, grief/loss, and trauma/stress. I aim to provide a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space to discuss your concerns and together address the things that affect you. I have expertise using a wide range of psychotherapy approaches, from supportive to evidenced-based, in community mental health clinics, primary care settings, and medical centers. I am bilingual (Spanish), and use trauma-informed, LGBTQ-affirming, multicultural, and humanistic frameworks.
My diverse training and work experiences have allowed me to witness and address multiple issues in individuals. I specialize in identity development, interpersonal and communication issues, and skills development to manage psychological concerns. I have been trained in various evidence-based therapies such as CBT, ACT, PE, and IPT.
Addressing symptoms, bringing insight, developing coping mechanisms, and creating lifestyle changes are some of the many goals in therapy. Ultimately, I want to empower you to live the life you envisioned. I hope my warm and compassionate approach will assist you in this healing and vulnerable process called therapy. I look forward to working with you!

I work with people who are in the process of self-discovery as they explore their overall identities, relationships style, sexual orientation, and gender identity. These processes can be fearsome and empowering at the same time, and can be confusing to navigate alone. Also, these processes can develop a myriad of psychological symptoms, which are important to address with useful tools.

I have been trained significantly in evidenced-based protocols/therapies and use many techniques derived from these, but I do not limit myself to the constraints of just one theory. My approach is unique to each individual and can include a wide range of theories, frameworks, perspectives, and ultimately interventions.
