I am a bilingual therapist fluent in Spanish specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, body image concerns, and the emotional challenges that often accompany these issues, including anxiety and depression. With years of experience, I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space. My approach is rooted in empowering individuals by combining CBT, DBT, ACT, and CPT, I support clients in managing difficult emotions, challenging negative thoughts, and developing healthier coping strategies. I also address the root causes of eating disorders and distorted body image, while working to reduce anxiety and depression.

Get to know me

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing and begin to identify 2-3 goals. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I believe that healing is possible when individuals are given the tools to foster self-compassion and resilience. In our work together, I will guide you toward understanding the underlying emotional, cognitive, and behavioral factors that influence your eating habits, body image, and overall mental health. By integrating evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, ACT, and CPT, I aim to support you in developing a balanced, intuitive approach to food and life. My goal is to help you cultivate emotional well-being, improve self-esteem, and achieve long-term healing in a way that feels authentic and empowering.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am committed to guiding individuals toward self-acceptance and healing by addressing the root causes of eating disorders, negative body image, and related mental health concerns, while fostering a sense of autonomy and self-compassion.
