About me

I am a dedicated therapist with 10 years of experience, Hablo español. I received my masters degree in social work from California State University San Marcos. I have experience working with adults and teenagers. My focus on short-term therapy is ideal for individuals seeking targeted, solution-focused interventions to address specific issues such as stress management, relationship challenges, or work-life balance.

Get to know me

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

In their first therapy session, clients can expect to discuss their reasons for seeking therapy, share relevant personal and medical history, and set initial goals. The session will focus on building rapport, addressing any immediate concerns, and outlining the therapeutic process. Clients will also have the opportunity to ask questions and clarify what they hope to achieve through therapy. This initial meeting helps create a safe, collaborative environment for future sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach is direct and proactive, and I am committed to challenging your thought processes to foster meaningful change. I specialize in short-term therapy for motivated individuals eager to put in the work to better themselves. Together, we will develop practical strategies and solutions to help you achieve your personal and professional goals efficiently.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to serve young adults who are motivated and ready to actively engage in the therapeutic process to achieve personal growth and self-improvement. These clients are typically open to learning new skills, implementing effective coping strategies, and making tangible changes in their lives. They are committed to reaching their goals efficiently and are eager to embrace the transformative journey of therapy with dedication and openness.

My treatment methods

Psychoeducation

In my therapeutic practice, I integrate psychoeducation to empower clients with a deeper understanding of their mental health. This involves providing information about psychological conditions, treatment options, and coping strategies, tailored to each client's needs. By demystifying the therapeutic process and fostering self-awareness, psychoeducation helps clients feel more in control and engaged in their own healing journey. It serves as a foundation for building resilience, encouraging active participation in therapy, and enhancing overall treatment outcomes.
