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. I look forward to hearing your story.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
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.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Having worked with diverse populations: veterans, substance abuse, homelessness, domestic violence, psychosis, relational conflicts, I have developed professional experience with relational turmoil and cognitive perspectives that impacts each of our lives.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I serve individuals with all levels of emotional distress and help cultivate joyful meaningful lives.
Dialectical 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.
