I believe there is no "one size fits all" approach to greater mental health and well-being. Every person has a unique biological, psychological and social story that impacts them every day. As a Clinical Social Worker and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner my approach is bio-individual, meaning what works for one person may not work for another. Together, we will deeply listen to your life story and then make a holistic plan that fits your individual needs and lifestyle in order to gain empathy, insight, hope and make changes that may bring greater mental and physical balance to your life.

I focus on learning who a person is uniquely, and I take an active role in treatment, offering genuine warmth and support as well as practical feedback. I draw from various theoretical approaches but commonly use cognitive behavioral therapy, mindful self-compassion, exposure response prevention, and internal family systems. As a licensed clinical social worker I have had the pleasure of working in cities across the United States with a wide range of individuals from a variety of backgrounds.

Sometimes you may find yourself experiencing conflicting emotions or in complex relationships. Therapy helps you find clarity and return to emotional wellness. I include family members in session when helpful and I explore with you ways to achieve enriching emotional and interpersonal experiences. I'm originally from Mexico and moved to MN in 1997, which allows me to provide therapy fluently in Spanish and/or English along with a personal understanding of Latino culture, American culture and multicultural relationships.

People are unique human beings with a long list of remarkable qualities. Sometimes though, we feel that we have qualities that we need to work on to be our better selves. I work with individuals to find those qualities and strengthen the ones we want to stay around. You may be a good fit for me if you: have ADHD, have children, are a family with adult children in the home, are a lifelong learner, are tired of looking at the positive side all the time, and willing to work on your problems in and out of therapy!

Therapy is dynamic and change is part of moving forward. Change is never easy but part of getting to know oneself is being able to come to terms and accept oneself. Part of the therapy is meeting the client where they are and helping them to move forward. Everyone has their own story and at the end of the day, therapy should help the person to move forward. I believe that therapy is about asking difficult questions and facing the things we are afraid of, breaking down the obstacles and roadblocks, understanding the repeated behaviors that prevent us from moving forward and achieving all that we are capable of.

Have you been feeling dissatisfied or discouraged in your day-to-day life? Do you feel like what you are doing falls short of what you want to accomplish? This can be pretty demoralizing, and it is not uncommon to keep doing what you are doing in the hopes that things will change or get better. Unfortunately, this is often not the case. Hoping for change is not enough for most people, and while there is comfort in knowing what to expect, it doesn’t get you any closer to the life that you deserve. You deserve to be healthy, happy, and fulfilled in all areas of your life. Together, we can get you in a place to make that happen.

I truly believe that all human beings have the ability to be mentally well; however, I recognize there are life experiences that can affect the human spirit deeply, guiding you to believe you are damaged, unlovable, or mentally unwell. It is my passion to guide people back to seeing themselves and life through a more positive lens where hope can be awakened and where peace, security, contentment, and joy can be found. I believe all people are affected by life's hardships differently, however we all have one thing in common: the ability to be well.
