I am a bilingual Licensed therapist. I'm fluent in Spanish and English. As a child of immigrants, I grew up between Chicago and Mexico, so I got the opportunity to be exposed to both cultures. I relocated to the Houston area in 2010 after receiving a great job opportunity. As a therapist, I help my clients to work on their personal growth and to learn better ways to deal with difficult transitions.

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

During the first session we will get to know each other, and we will focus on assessing your present situation and discussing your goals for therapy. I usually take this opportunity to explain my clients the therapeutic approach I use and how the process goes regularly. At the end of the first session, the client has the opportunity to decide whether or not they want to move forward with treatment.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I put my client's interests and needs first when it comes to setting goals and treatment plans. Of course I can provide my clients with feedback and recommendations as needed, but at the end they will always decide what they want to work on, as well as the pace they want to take.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

By identifying negative thinking patterns and the resulting emotions, client is able to become aware of their behaviors and the effect they have.

Humanistic

A client-centered approach is foundational in therapy because clients need to realize they are the experts in their own lives. Clients have the right to choose the changes they want to make and how to work on them.

Psychodynamic

Understanding the roots of the problems may be helpful in some cases were trauma is rooted in adverse childhood experiences. Looking into the effects of the unconscious processes, helps the client to make more in depth and long-lasting changes.
