I provide a warm, nurturing, & faith-honoring space for young adults & moms who are navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, & major life transitions. I specialize in supporting individuals who often carry the emotional weight of expectations, responsibilities, & caregiving—while quietly struggling to care for themselves. For young adults, therapy can be a place to process academic pressure, identity development, faith questions, relationship challenges, & the emotional overwhelm that often comes with stepping into adulthood. For moms, I offer compassionate support through the emotional shifts of motherhood, postpartum adjustment, self-doubt, & the desire to remain grounded in both faith & self-care. My approach gently integrates Christian & Catholic values for those who wish to include faith as part of their healing journey, honoring the mind, body, & spirit. Whether you’re seeking calm amid racing thoughts, relief from emotional heaviness, or a renewed sense of purpose & confidence, I walk alongside you with empathy, understanding, & encouragement. Together, we’ll navigate the tides of life & create space for peace, healing, & renewal. I welcome you to begin your journey toward finding your own mental oasis—even in the midst of life’s waves. 🌊 *Sessions are available in English & Spanish.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Your first session is a welcoming & supportive space where we focus on getting to know you & what led you to seek therapy. You’re invited to share your story at your own pace—there is no pressure to have everything figured out. Together, we’ll explore your current challenges, clarify your goals, & identify what you’d like to work toward—whether that’s emotional balance, confidence, spiritual grounding, or healthier relationships. I’ll also explain my therapeutic approach & answer any questions you may have so you feel informed & comfortable moving forward. My goal is for you to leave your first session feeling heard, supported, & hopeful about the path ahead.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach is warm, collaborative, & rooted in genuine connection. I draw from attachment-based, emotionally focused, humanistic, & positive psychology frameworks, with the option to integrate Christian or Catholic counseling when desired. Sessions are personalized, compassionate, & practical—designed to support college students & first-time moms as they navigate emotional challenges, identity shifts, & faith-centered values. Clients often leave sessions with greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, & confidence to face life’s challenges with renewed clarity, hope, & resilience. I also offer care in Spanish, creating a culturally responsive & affirming space for bilingual & Spanish-speaking clients.

My treatment methods

Faith based therapy

I use attachment-based theory to help clients understand how early relationships shape the way they connect with others today. By exploring those patterns, we can strengthen their sense of security, build healthier connections, and create more fulfilling relationships—with themselves and others.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

I use Emotionally Focused Therapy to help clients understand the deeper emotions driving their thoughts and behaviors. Together, we work on identifying emotional patterns, strengthening emotional awareness, and fostering safe, supportive connections in relationships. EFT allows clients to heal from disconnection and develop new ways of relating that promote closeness, trust, and emotional safety.

Christian Counseling

For clients who wish to include faith in their healing process, I offer Christian counseling that integrates biblical principles with evidence-based therapeutic approaches. This allows clients to explore emotional struggles, strengthen their relationship with God, and find peace and direction through both faith and psychology. My goal is to support each person’s spiritual and emotional growth in a compassionate, nonjudgmental space.

Humanistic

I use a humanistic approach that focuses on each person’s unique experiences, strengths, and inner potential. I believe clients are the experts of their own lives, and my role is to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where they feel safe to explore who they are, what they value, and how they want to grow. Together, we work toward greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, and a stronger sense of purpose.

Positive Psychology

I integrate positive psychology principles to help clients recognize and build upon their strengths, resilience, and capacity for joy. Through gratitude, mindfulness, and growth-oriented practices, clients learn to shift from simply coping with challenges to thriving and finding meaning in their daily lives. This approach encourages hope, empowerment, and lasting well-being.
