Hello, I’m a bilingual Marriage and Family Therapist with over 7 years of experience. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families from diverse cultural backgrounds, understanding the challenges that arise from navigating different perspectives and references. I help clients address a variety of issues, including anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, addiction, and codependency, supporting them in achieving lasting change and recovery. My approach focuses on creating a therapeutic space centered around reflection, honesty, and emotional safety, where we can work together to overcome obstacles and reach your goals. Through the therapeutic relationship, I aim to create a safe space for deep listening and reflection, where we can explore how our connections with others, and experiences from our past, continue to shape our lives and decisions.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, after completing the necessary formalities, we’ll take the time to get to know each other. This will allow us to build a trusting therapeutic relationship that will inspire and support you in making the changes you desire in your life.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I believe each person’s story is shaped by their cultural background and life experiences. Our past, especially within family and community, influences how we think, feel, and act today. This understanding is one of my greatest assets as a therapist, as it allows me to help you explore these stories, challenge old patterns, and create new ones that align with your true self and goals for the future.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
The most rewarding work happens with clients who are ready for change and committed to the journey of therapy. If you're open to exploring new perspectives, gaining deeper self-awareness, and making lasting transformations, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
Relational
I work from a relational prespective, which focuses on how individuals relate to others and how these patterns affect their relationships. We will explore and understand how relational dynamics affect our personal, professional, couples or family interactions. Even though I am a trained couple's therapist, I am not providing that service online at this time. I can work with clients on their relationship issues one at a time.
Psychodynamic
I use psychodynamic therapy to help clients explore how early experiences, and past relationships influence their current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By examining these old dynamics, we can identify recurring patterns that may be causing distress or conflict and then, we begin to change.
Narrative
I use narrative therapy to help clients reframe and rewrite the stories they tell about themselves. I work with clients to empowering them to see themselves as the authors of their own stories and let go of unhelpful or limiting narratives that no longer serve them.
