I believe that therapy is a process meant to help people achieve greater peace and happiness, living the life they envision. With guidance you are in charge of your treatment.

I will bring compassion and knowledge to our work using a patient-centered approach.

¡Hola! ¿Como Estas? I am a bilingual Mental Health Counselor with over 6 years of experience working with couples, families and individuals of all age groups. I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, family & relationship issues, and immigration. Life can be challenging and full of never wrecking moments leading us to feel anxious and depressed. It is important we take care of our mental health in hopes of living a healthier life. I believe therapy should make you feel comfortable in order to allow you to be open and honest which will in turn help you achieve your goals.

I enjoy helping people find ways to make positive changes. My clients initially come to their first session with depression, anxiety, and frustration. They are trying to juggle family issues, along with financial and personal issues. Most people need effective skills to help them manage life with less frustration and stress, along with methods to improve their decision-making, thus improving the quality of their life.

I am often described as a warm, calming, and collaborative therapist with a good sense of humor. I have an interest and experience in working with the BIPOC community and LGBTQ+ community and enthusiastically provide queer-affirming and trans-affirming care. I believe that a person-centered, strengths-based, and integrative approach creates a therapy experience to fit your needs. I also have extensive experience in trauma and/or substance abuse, along with anxiety, depression (both adults and children ages 9 and up), mood disorders, change of life stressors, and divorce and coparenting skills.

As your therapist, I am present, listen actively and reflectively, with compassion and empathy. My approach is patient and allows clients, like yourself, to set the pace that feels right for them. Through individual, couple and family therapy, I assist clients in improving communication, managing emotions, navigating relationship issues, working through life transitions, and overcoming obstacles like anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and trauma. My goal is to empower you to gain self-awareness, build resilience and reconnect with your sense of purpose and fulfillment.

The perinatal period is a time of not only birth, but rebirth. It is a time of great change and adjustment, both physically and emotionally. I support clients on their journey to parenthood, offering grace, validation, and hope. Whether my clients are grappling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or adjustment difficulties, I tailor my interventions to meet their unique needs and goals. I strive to create a safe and nurturing space where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences, emotions, and concerns without judgment. My hope is to empower individuals and families to thrive during the perinatal period and beyond.

Take back the reins in your life. For too long you have been pushing through, just trying to get from one day to the next. You drag yourself out of bed each day, trying to forget about last night’s nightmares or the memories that haunt you. It's a constant battle against the worry that tells you something terrible is about to happen, leaving you fighting just to get through your daily tasks. In a room full of people, you still feel entirely alone, lost in your own thoughts. It's exhausting, constantly pretending that everything is okay. Yet you still put on that brave face and keep going.
