I have been a Psychotherapist for the past 29 years, I consider myself "seasoned" and not old. My favorite saying is "Trust the Process". I am Hispanic and Bilingual, I treat everyone with the upmost respect and like for you to feel comfortable as it will be easy to talk about what is happening. I specialize in Individuals, couples, Substance abuse and end of life. I sometimes say it gets worse before it gets better, as we have to deal with the difficult issues we have swept under the rug in order to be able to move forward and see things from a different perspective. Mindfulness, CBT, DBT, Solution focused therapy.

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

If you are someone who is feeling overwhelmed by personal challenges, seeking clarity, and wanting to heal past wounds. If you need guidance to build self-awareness, resilience, and confidence and your goal is to break free from limiting patterns and create a more fulfilling life. For couples who are struggling with communication, trust, or connection. You need a safe space to rebuild their relationship and your goal is to enhance understanding, resolve conflicts, and deepen their bond. Both want lasting change and a happier, more harmonious life. I like for the first session to be information gathering, where you can provide me some background information about yourself, in order to understand what is happening and then we can work together to see how to move forward and work together towards our goals.
