Life comes with challenges. Whether you are faced with difficulties in managing stress, anxiety, depression, and/or wish to overcome trauma, seeking therapeutic assistance is a healthy step toward evolving into a better version of yourself. I have been working in this field for over eight years . I have experience working with the Hispanic community. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist. I am also trained in The Flash Technique, Trauma Focused CBT (TFCBT), Internal Family Systems, and most recently Internal family Systems and Brain spotting. Over the years, I have gained experienced in helping individuals deal with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, self-harming, childhood trauma, relationship counseling and parenting. I'm passionate about helping people achieve their goals and I provide a safe, empathetic, healing environment.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Brainspotting
After recently being trained in this modality, in conjunction with years of EMDR experience, I find it will be easy to introduce to clients and anticipate it will be a great resource to help client's meet their goals.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a foundational modality that I started using in my practicum in 2016. It is introduced to all clients in session.
EMDR
In 2019, I completed training in EMDR and in 2021, I completed and achieved certification. I feel confident in this modality and have seen wonderful results in clients.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
I attended a training in IFS and EMDR integration in 2023 and have been incorporating IFS into treatment with client since then. This modality is very helpful in helping clients contain parts of themselves and function from their true core self.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness Based Therapy has been a method that I have used early on in my career. It is a practice to help ground clients and elevate insight and awareness.
