Licensed to practice in California and accepts 45 insurances. Specializes in Depression, Trauma and PTSD
My approach is culturally aware, trauma-informed therapist who works collaboratively with clients to create a space that feels safe, respectful and grounded in authenticity. It is important that my clients feel emotionally safe, seen and empowered. I intend to create an environment where they can feel comfortable to navigate the challenging and difficult experiences they have endured throughout their life.
You will enter a compassionate and non-judgmental environment, where you will feel heard and understood. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative space, where you are free to move at a pace that is manageable for you. We may begin to explore important aspects of your background, relationships, identity, culture, trauma and stressors. Again, you share only what feels comfortable for you.
What stands out about my therapeutic approach is the balance I bring between emotional safety, cultural awareness, trauma-focused and meaningful change. I understand that healing is not just about reducing symptoms, it is also about helping clients better understand themselves, reconnect with their sense of agency and develop healthier ways of relating to their emotions, relationships, and life experiences.
I am best positioned to work with clients who are navigating challenges in relationships, particularly those experiencing ongoing family conflict, difficulty forming or maintaining healthy partnerships or feeling stuck in repetitive unhealthy relational patterns. I also support clients who struggle with setting boundaries, often feeling overwhelmed, overextended, or unsure of how to assert their needs without guilt or fear of conflict.

This therapist was cold, dismissive, and clinically unsafe. She repeatedly minimized my trauma history, made culturally offensive comments, and offered no support when I was in acute distress.

She was super sweet, understanding, direct but warm. I’m Mexican and it was refreshing to have someone understand the dynamics of my family from a cultural perspective.
