As a bilingual clinical therapist, I support clients in reducing the long-term effects of complex trauma through the use of evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to their unique needs. I collaborate with individuals to strengthen resilience, enhance emotional regulation, and foster meaningful, lasting healing. My approach emphasizes creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel genuinely heard, understood, valued, and consistently supported throughout their therapeutic journey.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we'll discuss any current challenges or stressors you may be facing. I'll ask questions to better understand your concerns, and together, we'll start to build a therapeutic connection. Everyone has a unique story, and I'm looking forward to learning more about yours.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach is tailored to each client's unique needs. My practice integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thought patterns and Humanistic techniques to support personal growth. Solution-Focused Therapy to create actionable strategies, Strength-Based approaches to empower clients, and Trauma-Focused interventions to support healing.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My approach to therapy is tailored to each client's unique needs. I primarily use a person-centered, strengths-based approach, focusing on empowering you to build on your existing strengths. Additionally, I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you explore how your thought patterns may influence your emotions and behaviors, offering guidance toward meaningful change in daily life.

I have used solution focused therapy with a variety of clients. This treatment helps clients explore solutions for current stressors. With a collaborative and goal-oriented approach, we focus on building solutions that work for you.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

As a therapist with years of experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’m dedicated to helping you overcome challenges and create lasting change. I specialize in using CBT to help clients address anxiety, depression, stress, and other emotional difficulties by identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors.

Humanistic

Utilizing a humanistic approach, I am committed to providing a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings, values, and goals. Humanistic therapy is centered around the belief that you have the inherent capacity for growth and self-fulfillment, and my role is to help you tap into that potential in a supportive and empowering way.
