Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I speak Spanish/English and I have been in practice since 2014, helping individuals and families cope with significant changes, losses and experiences. I believe we all have internal resources to heal with and with professional help one can alleviate from emotional distress and fulfill meaningful lives.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session, we will get to know each other and develop a plan for treatment. I will get to learn of the reasons you are seeking help and then offer my clinical judgement to assist you. You are your own expert and collaboratively we can work on your goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with diverse populations: veterans, substance abuse, homelessness, domestic violence, psychosis, relational conflicts, I have found a common ground with relational turmoils and cognitive perspectives that impacts each of our lives.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I serve individuals with all levels of emotional distress and help cultivate joyful meaningful lives.

Daialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have been practicing DBT Therapy for the past 7 years. This modality is effective in teaching skills for interpersonal effectiveness, mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. DBT is helpful in establishing a life worth living.
EMDR
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing is a form of psychotherapy. It was designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories such as with post-traumatic stress disorder. This is helpful in reducing the emotional intensity associated with traumatic memories.
