With a strong background in mental health, I specialize in caring for individuals of all ages dealing with ADHD, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and PTSD.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our initial session, we'll delve into the reasons for seeking treatment and collaboratively determine the best strategies for your progress. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll examine the impact of your thoughts on emotions, working together to challenge and change negative thoughts for improved feelings throughout the course of treatment.

My greatest strengths as a provider include a holistic and patient-centered approach, focusing on understanding each individual's unique experiences and needs. I believe in creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can feel heard and empowered. Additionally, my commitment to serving diverse populations, including the LGBTQ+ community and undocumented individuals, ensures that everyone receives the care and respect they deserve.
