(she/her)
Welcome, and I look forward to being a support on this important and challenging journey of yours. As a first-generation Latina therapist, I understand systemic barriers, trauma care, intergenerational experiences, and community strengths. I hope to empower you to feel more confident in overcoming obstacles in your life. I am a bilingual(Spanish speaking) Licensed Clinical Social Worker with several years supporting patients achieve their goals to address trauma, societal stressors, life challenges, family complexities, school performance, and personal growth. I have my journey with societal pressures and family dynamics that inspired me to undertake the role of a therapist helping families, parents/caregivers, adolescents, and children overcome similar experiences.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In the first session, we will discuss your background, your reasons for therapy, and your potential goals. I seek to use these interactions to inform an approach that is best suited for your journey. I want to normalize nervousness for this first session. We will work through this process together.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My approach is to create a safe space that is client-centered, strength-based, and collaborative. As a mental health advocate, I take into consideration the different external factors impacting family and individuals' inner selves for an informative therapeutic approach to promote their well-being. I work collaboratively with you to consider your clinical needs and environmental factors to develop a trauma-informed and strength-based plan for your journey. I utilize a variety of interventions: Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Parent-Child Care (PC-CARE), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family-Focused Therapy(FFT), Incredible Years Program, and Psychodynamic Therapy.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Struggling with trauma, family engagement, parenting, hyperactivity/inattention, family conflicts, anxiety? I work with families, parents, teens, and school-age children on communication, parent-child connection, and behavioral management to reduce distress in the home environment while honoring their authenticity. Parenting can be demanding with current societal factors, and I strive to help caregivers grow into their parenting styles. I am considerate of each individual and family's uniqueness to develop skills that align with their values and aspirations.
