I provide two different but related services; counseling and forensic mental health evaluations. I am available to see clients for counseling on a very limited basis. As a forensic evaluator, I provide mental health evaluations and expert witness testimony for cases including immigration, child custody, personal injury, risk for violence, and criminal cases. Both counseling services and forensic mental health evaluations are provided in Spanish. Clients must have attorney representation.
I take a systems approach when working with clients. I help clients develop appropriate boundaries with others, within and outside of the family. I work with adolescents and adults who desire coaching for personal growth and development of self. I encourage clients to learn about mindfulness practice.
I enjoy working with adolescents and adults. I'm a former K-12 teacher and I have taught graduate and undergraduate classes in the counseling field. I have worked as a therapist for more than 30 years. I provide counseling and forensic services in both English and Spanish.
