Get to know me

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

During our first session, you can expect a respectful and supportive environment where your experiences, concerns, and goals are the central focus. We will discuss what has led you to seek therapy, review any relevant background information, and begin to explore your therapeutic objectives.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My clinical approach is grounded in the belief that every individual has the capacity for growth, healing, and self-understanding. I work from a person-centered framework, ensuring therapy begins with empathy, respect, and a genuine commitment to your personal narrative. To support long-term insight and transformation, I integrate psychodynamic therapy to help clients better understand how early experiences, attachment patterns, and unconscious beliefs influence their current relationships and emotional experiences. I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. I have used these treatment modalities when working with older adults, military Veterans, teens and families. Each modality I employ is adapted to meet the unique circumstances and cultural background of my clients. My work is enriched by years of experience, fluency in Spanish, and a strong commitment to equity and inclusion in the therapeutic space.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work well with adults, and teens facing challenges related to trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. If you feel stuck in painful patterns, weighed down by unresolved experiences, or overwhelmed by self-critical thoughts, I’m here to help. My clients often seek clarity, connection, and emotional relief—and I tailor our work to support those goals at your own pace. Whether you're navigating identity, grief, family conflict, or low self-worth, you deserve to be supported with care and respect.
