Welcome! I am a bilingual-bicultural Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field providing services to children and families. My focus is to address the impact of adverse childhood experiences, complex, intergenerational, and vicarious trauma, grief and loss to support healing and growth. I also have a PhD in Infant and Early Childhood Development with an emphasis on mental health and developmental disorders. I am also a graduate from the Napa Infant-Parent Mental Health Fellowship.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In therapy, I work collaboratively to develop treatment goals. I provide opportunities for processing and psychoeducation to create new meaning making, skill-building exercises, and homework assignments to facilitate healing and growth.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a bilingual-bicultural provider, I am passionate about serving clients both in English and Spanish, ensuring that cultural nuances are respected and integrated into the therapeutic practices.
