About me

I am a bilingual (Spanish) licensed psychotherapist who specializes in working with adolescents, emerging adults, and parents. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them understand the root of their symptoms and distress so they can move forward in building the life and relationships they envision for themselves. Many of my clients have felt stuck in limiting patterns, leaving them disconnected from their deepest desires and values. Whether it’s navigating relationship difficulties, burnout, or a sense of simply “going through the motions,” I help them break free from the beliefs and behaviors that hold them back.

Get to know me

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

Clients can expect a warm, non-judgmental, curiosity where I can set the frame for therapy. My goal is to try and really get a sense of who you are and what your goals are so that I can support and assist you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I believe in creating a nurturing and supportive therapeutic relationship in which individuals can develop insight, uncover unhealthy dynamics, and address their struggles like low self-esteem, depression, trauma and anxiety. I draw from various evidence-based treatment models to identify the most effective approach to address your needs and goals.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I utilize my mindfulness informed therapeutic approach to help clients help rewire limiting beliefs and create new ones. I combine embodiment and compassion practices to cultivate a sense of empowerment and wellbeing. My work resonates with those who are open to change, ready to see things from fresh perspectives, and willing to practice gentle accountability as they move closer to their authentic selves.
