I am a California native who recently re-located to Dallas, Texas. I am a first generation Salvadoreña. I am extremely proud of my indigenous ancestry and of my culture. I aim to empower anyone who can relate or identify. I obtained my Masters of Social Work from the University of Southern California. (Fight on!) I have been practicing as a psychotherapist for over ten years, and specialize in working with BIPOC (Black,Indigenous, People of Color) I aim to create spaces inclusive of all cultures, races, genders, ages, and sexual orientations. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and am also trained to provide EMDR. I am especially interested in bringing awareness on how we are able to "retrain the brain" and ultimately add more peace and joy into our lives.

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

My intention is to offer you a warm and nurturing space as you confront those heavy feelings that are blocking your peace. My hope is together we can help you re-connect or for some discover that part of you that feels in control and looks forward to the future.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I incorporate evidence based modalities such as CBT, DBT, and EMDR whilst also incorporating a holistic approach. Our mind, body and soul are interconnected and if one needs support usually, the other two will follow.

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

My biggest strength is my nurturing and empathetic style.
