I believe everyone has strengths, even when they cannot see them yet. My role is to help you reconnect with those strengths and build new tools for healing and growth. I offer a space that is warm, respectful, and centered around who you are and what matters to you. As a bilingual therapist, I understand the importance of culture, language, and identity.
In our first sessions, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and together we'll decide how to move forward. I extensively use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps you understand how your thoughts influence your emotions. I'll help you identify patterns and develop tools to transform them, thus strengthening your emotional well-being.

My greatest strengths are my years of combined experience and ability to accept feedback and utilize it in sessions.
My ideal client is someone who has spent so much time caring for others that they have forgotten how to care for themselves. They may feel tired, anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward. Life may feel heavy, especially when carrying the pressure of expectations from being a caregiver.

They want to feel more connected to themselves. They want to feel grounded, clear and confident. It’s ok to ask for help. Todos necesitamos ayuda.
