I work with clients that are coming to counseling for parenting, family of origin issues, perinatal mental health, and perfectionism. My clients are often parents or young adults that are struggling to feel like they are doing a good job. They feel overwhelmed and a little depressed. They are struggling with issues that stem from their own childhood and upbringing. I work with them on showing themselves grace and compassion. We reframe and examine negative thoughts they are having, and I work with them to heal from their childhood wounds. We work together to define and appreciate all of their many roles and identities.

Women, despite being the foundation of our society (I am a little biased, of course), are often given too much stress to manage effectively. We have to be employees, mothers, wives, friends, daughters and sisters, just to name a few roles that we play. When there is friction or "conflict" in any one of these roles, life can get complicated. I am passionate about supporting women in our many phases of life. I also serve the Latino (Spanish-speaking) community in a culturally sensitive manner.

Therapy doesn't have to be what you see in the movies. As a therapist who understands that the typical approach to therapy can feel intimidating, I strive to create an impactful and enjoyable experience. My goal is to make sessions feel less clinical and more like a collaborative experience towards enhancing overall well-being or goals. By drawing from an eclectic approach, together we will create a therapeutic space that is unique to you or your family. I approach therapy from an open and curious perspective to see each client and their experiences as a whole.
