As a bilingual Latina, I live and work in far west Texas. My professional path has led me through three major cities: Austin, San Antonio, and El Paso. Initially, my work focus was with children and teens within the criminal justice system and Child Protective Services. After moving across the state, I expanded my work to include autism spectrum disorders, asthma, and chronic illnesses in children by supporting parents and caregivers as a case manager and disease management educator. Later, I transitioned to providing psychotherapy with adults and children at a community behavioral health clinic in San Antonio. After a break to start and raise my family, I decided to return to psychotherapy. Assisting others in discovering hope amidst challenges and adversity is profoundly impactful. Observing change and growth in individuals over time brings me joy.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session, we will focus on establishing trust and rapport. You can expect to discuss your reasons for seeking a therapy and your expectations from the therapy process. I will ask you questions about your life including medical history. Then together we will create a plan of counseling goals.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I hope to provide a safe and empathetic environment for sharing your concerns. I hope to gain your trust and confidence knowing that you can be honest about the current challenges or past experiences that have brought you to seek therapy.
