Hi there! I'm Beatriz and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California working with clients statewide via Telehealth. I’m a Latina bilingual Spanish speaking therapist with many years of mental health experience. My passion is to connect with people in a way that makes them feel seen and heard. I'd describe my therapeutic interaction as casual and informal. I take a holistic approach to therapy. I believe that every client needs something different and I work to provide that along the way. I have specialized training related to trauma (Trauma Focused CBT), early childhood mental health (Child Parent Psychotherapy), and a certification in maternal/perinatal mental health (PMH-C).

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

During the first session, I want to learn about you! I will be asking questions about what is bringing you into therapy, what have been your recent struggles with your mental health, questions surrounding your history and what are your expectations for treatment. I want to learn about your history so that I know your story and how to best support you moving forward.

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

I am passionate about empowering clients and working together to build a safe, trusting, and empathetic environment. My hope is that each client that I work with feels understood, validated and supported throughout their therapeutic journey.
