Saludos, Greetings! I am a Latina mental health therapist, fluent in Spanish, working with adults addressing stress, anxiety, and depression. Pedir ayuda puede ser difícil, especialmente cuando sentimos vergüenza, culpa o miedo a ser juzgado/a. Sin embargo, es una experiencia muy humana sentir inseguridad sobre cómo seguir adelante. Asking for help can be difficult, especially if you feel shame, guilt, or fear being judged. It’s a very human experience to feel uncertain about how to move forward. I understand how life’s struggles can make it hard to manage daily responsibilities, filling your mind with worries and overwhelming emotions. Therapy can provide a supportive space to process your feelings, gain clarity, and learn coping skills that feel right for you. By seeking support, you’re making an important commitment to yourself.

When we experience severe trauma or life stressors, our lives can start to collapse into a day-to-day struggle. Our normal coping mechanisms and our support systems can start to fail or no longer be enough to help pull us through the difficult time. The truth is, we cannot change our life experiences, but we can search to find solutions to help us overcome depression, addiction, anxiety, relationship difficulties. We can grow and become aware of our own strengths as we face our struggles. Sometimes we need that extra help to aid us in regaining life balance in our journey of self-discovery. As a licensed family therapist with eight years of experience, I am passionate about helping adults navigate & explore complex challenges in order to work towards positive changes that are solution based.

I'll help you learn to cope, build confidence and make that change you want to see in your life. As an LMFT, I’ve spent over a decade seeing people at the lowest points of their lives, having suffered child abuse, violent relationships, depression & anxiety, drug addiction, and other hardships. I learned that so many of us feel alone, stuck, and misunderstood. Lets change that.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), licensed in California. I received my Masters in MFT from California State University Long Beach. I have been working in the field for almost 10 years. I have worked with a wide variety of clients from infants to older adults. I have experiences working with court mandated individuals, children and adults in the non-profit community mental health sector and with individuals who sought therapy out for themselves. I provide a safe space for my clients to talk openly about topics they choose and I collaborate with them in working towards the goals they set out for themselves. I promote an environment of honest communication and trust for my clients so they can feel understood and accepted.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take Scripps Health Plan?

Yes! If you use Scripps Health Plan you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Scripps Health Plan you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
