I am fully bilingual in Spanish and English. I have 10+ years of experience working with children and adults providing individual and family counseling, including extensive experience providing trauma-informed care with immigrant families and youth involved with the foster care and juvenile justice systems. I will strive to instill hope by empowering clients to discover and build on their own strengths. I believe therapy can help individuals navigate through difficulties so it doesn't feel like we are doing it alone. Come with me to the journey of introspection and we will find healing in the end.
Life challenges such as depression, anxiety, transitions, grief, relationships, or immigration can be difficult at all ages of life. Having a passionate therapist with a trauma-informed approach who believes in individualizing treatment to your specific needs is key during the healing process.
I use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and relaxation techniques during therapy. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults experiencing a variety of obstacles.
