Hi, I'm a Lincesed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) proffesional based in California. I have worked in the mental health field for nearly 13 years . I specialize in post traumatic stress disorder and other mental illness such as anxiety and depression. Most of my career I have worked with all age groups (1- 62+) years old from underpowered; low income and underepresented background/populations. It is my goal to continue to provide compassion and professional mental health services to improve wellbeing and healing.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will take some time for introductions; answer any questions clients may have about therapy and past therapy needs and expectations. I love to discover client's strenghs and skills; passions and current positive support system. Discussing therapy goals are optional during the first session, however, most important is the therapist-client connection, client's comfort and therapeutic relationship. En nuestra primera cita, tomameros un momento de introducion y contestar cualquier pregunta sobre este servicio, tus necesidades y expectativas. Me encanta descubrir las fortalezas y habilidades personales; pasion y el sistema de apoyo que tengas. Compartir tus metas de terapia es opcional durante esta primera sesion, sin embargo, es mas importante que se crea una coneccion de terapeuta-cliente , y la comodidad y relacion con la terapeuta.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with trauma survivors has taught me many skills and greater level of compassion and increase understanding of different trauma reactions and behavioral needs. Client's resiliences are as tools to better support client's abilities to achieve therapeutic goals. By including trauma education, I have observed the increase of client's understanding of their needs, behavioral modification and healing.
