We like to meet people where they are. Trauma can sometimes leave us wondering “what is wrong with me?“ We believe a better question is “what happened to you?” In our practice, we view clients in that way. Everyone has a story, a story that makes them unique. Our interest is in understanding what the story is and how to use a story as a strength rather than a fault. Even though it seems easier said than done, and it also takes time, we believe any client, from kids to adults, can get there with patience and understanding. Play therapy helps that healing process.

I specialize in working with shame, perfectionism, trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, anxiety, faith transitions, and LGBTQ+ issues.

I’m a first-gen Latina, familiar with the challenges of navigating daily life. Being authentic is essential to me. I understand the overwhelming weight of anxiety and worry, the pain of losing someone before their time, and the struggle to fit in. As a single mother, I have gained a deep understanding of the importance of modeling behavior, effective communication, establishing boundaries, and, most importantly, fostering meaningful connections. Therapy is a journey of self-discovery where we learn who we are, what we’re capable of, and how to manage the stress of everyday life.

Divorce can be a scary experience for a child. A child can respond to such changes by having tantrums, refusals, and becoming more withdrawn. The guilt and shame of divorce can be so overwhelming that you do not know how to help your child anymore and fear that the divorce can cause damage to your child forever. The good news is, divorce does not have to be the worst thing you can do to your child. In fact, divorce can be a very healthy decision and help your child learn how to cooperate and grow, even under challenging circumstances.

Life is messy. Relationships are messy. Taking care of your mental health is messy. Challenges and set-backs are messy. Living your faith and navigating your faith is messy. Pain, loss, anger, grief, betrayal, heartbreak, confusion, addiction, and disappointment are messy. Happiness and living a fulfilling life is also messy. I am no stranger to the mess that makes up our life's journey, and I believe that therapy can help us to navigate through and make sense of the mess. I also believe that when given the right tools and support, we can even turn the mess into something spectacular.

I understand that you have something bothering you, whether it is anxiety, depression, relational issues, or something else, and I will work to give you the tools to feel better.

Many of my previous clients have shared what a good experience they had in therapy, and I would love for you to have a great experience as well.

In the Disney Movie, The Lion King, Rafiki the wise monkey says, “Oh yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it.” Being an avid Harry Potter and Disney fan has taught me a lot of things in my life. I have been a therapist for over 10 + years. I specialize in all types of traumas (i.e. family or origins, bullying, chronic health, divorce, adjustment issues, life change, grief, to all types of abuse and harm), depression, addiction, and anxiety. I work with individuals, families, couples, the LGBTQIA+ community, first responders/military, and ages 6-96+.
