Are you feeling alone, stuck or that something in your life needs to change? Would you like to take control of your life, instead of it controlling you? I have worked with those struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar, stress management, relationship conflict, divorce, LGBT issues, grief/loss and trauma and helped them take back control of their lives. By working together to identify your unique needs, the source of distress, and what's perpetuating the problem, I will help you develop the tools to navigate and overcome the obstacles preventing you from finding fulfillment and living the life you want!

You, and all human beings, have an innate ability to move toward reaching your own unique full potential (self-actualization). But how can you go about doing so when your thoughts, feelings and/or actions are holding you back? Counseling is a process whereby the counselor assists the client in learning to utilize his/her strengths in order to overcome challenges. My relationship with my clients is one of non-judgment. Optimism and hope are the characteristics that best describe my counseling style. I look forward to meeting you!

The foundation of my work with clients is based on the belief that "it's the relationship that heals." Relationships are vital to our emotional and psychological growth and how we take care of them is important. My goal is to provide a safe, respectful, and empathic place to discuss those situations that matter to you most. I lean toward a relational, psychodynamic, and spiritual approach to the therapeutic process and provide a place to process the meaning of your experiences and help you reconstruct them to reduce barriers to your emotional health.

I provide action-oriented, supportive, feminist, and person-centered psychotherapy. I am a bi-lingual (Spanish-speaking) and bi-cultural therapist that understands cultural influences and can express feelings and thoughts in a language that my clients feel comfortable.
