Hi I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. I earned my Masters of Social Work from San Jose State University and have been practicing for the past seven years and have over twenty years experience as a child welfare social worker. I am bilingual (Spainsh).My focus is working with individuals who are interested in addressing negative symptoms which are impacting their lives. My goal is to provide you with the tools to lead a healthy and productive life.
During our first session we will start with a brief introduction. I will provide you with an overview of the therapy process, and we will touch upon the issues leading you to seek help. By doing so this will help to create a treatment plan to guide us through future sessions.
My years of experience have helped my develop methods to guide clients in recognizing triggers and how to cope with them.
I enjoy working with a wide range of individuals, from teens to older adults. I have experience both as a clinician and as a social worker. Both these positions have helped me develop the skills to provide mechanisms to improve my clients lives.

CBT is an evidence based therapeutic modality which focuses on modifying negative thoughts and behaviors.
My years of experience as both a clinician and social worker have allowed me to interact with a diverse population. I practice cultural humility and understand the importance of culture within the therapeutic process.
