From an early age, I felt a strong calling to help others and found deep fulfillment in making a positive difference in people’s lives. Raised in an immigrant family with limited resources, I joined the military as a way to pursue my education and create new opportunities for myself. During my time in the military, I relocated frequently and had the privilege of connecting with individuals from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and belief systems. These experiences shaped my understanding of how our differences enrich us, while also recognizing how they can create internal struggles, relational challenges, and emotional stress. This perspective led me to pursue a career in social work. Today, I am committed to providing compassionate, culturally responsive care and supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and move toward meaningful change—one person at a time. It is so hard to try to tell your life story to a stranger, but just know I'm here to help you find the strength you thought you lost but is just hiding deep in you. We will work together to help you achieve your goals. Spanish: Es my dificil contarle su historia a un estrano, pero yo estoy aqui para ayudarle a encontrar su fuerza interior para mejorar.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, any concerns or goals you have, and what you’re hoping to gain from our work together. I’ll also ask questions about your background, current stressors, and overall well-being to better understand your experience. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you—there’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for. I’ll explain how therapy works, answer any questions you may have, and we’ll begin outlining a plan that aligns with your needs and strengths. The goal of the first session is for you to feel heard, supported, and confident about taking this next step in your healing journey.
