Is confusion, sadness and overwhelm taking up more of your time? Do you need help making sense of these feelings and understanding yourself and your world? I specialize in working with high functioning adults, age 20 and above, whose dysfunctional behavioral patterns prevent them from leading more joyful, empowered lives. Perhaps your family’s in your ear all the time, or your friends or spouse. Or your relationship is changing and you don't know how to make it better. And you bend to make them happy, but are then resentful and unfulfilled. You’re doing your best to manage anxious or depressed feelings, but family or relationship conflicts are challenging. My approach is engaging, compassionate and attentive. I slow you down so that you can hear, sense and understand yourself in different ways. We explore the parts of you that make you uncomfortable, and move through your pain and vulnerabilities. Through emotional and thought processes, we move your closed off parts closer to you, as your feelings towards them change. Life can begin to feel lighter, more manageable, more at ease. Inside each of us, there is a deep need to align with our core values and beliefs, with our self worth and truth. We’ll identify behaviors stemming from your pain and help you align with actions coming from your worth.

Growing up as a first generation Latina, I always knew that I wanted to give back to my community. Working in the mental health field fulfills that for me. I strive to help people connect and improve the relationships that they have with themselves and others. My approach is eclectic; pulling from different modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused therapy and Mindfulness. I want to say that witnessing progress and being part of the mental health journey is what inspires me to do the work but in all honesty it is an honor to be considered to be part of your healing journey, it is not easy work and I am here to provide you with the tools and compassion to overcome challenges. Being a Therapist allows me to dedicate myself to my passion for supporting the community by providing mental health services that address anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, and relationship issues. When problems arise, we often forget about prioritizing ourselves and instead focus on beating ourselves down. Choosing the right therapist to embark on this journey is key to successful therapy. I provide compassion and remain curious to the thoughts, feelings and experiences so the challenges are not overwhelming and you can see light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. This mental health journey is not easy. I can provide you with unconditional acceptance, guidance so you achieve your goals and live your best life.

I specialize in panic disorders, depression, bipolar and disordered eating. Not only do I help treat these disorders, but I help clients completely be rid of them! Believe it or not, panic, anxiety and depression don’t have to be life-sentences, and you don’t just have to just learn “coping skills”. These disorders are symptoms of a root problem that can be undone in therapy! I have helped many people break free of their lifelong anxiety and depressive symptoms in just a few months. Therapy can really work if you have a competent therapist, who does more than just listen to your problems! I love supporting my clients to make mental and practical changes that allow them to finally have the peace they’ve been looking for. Be encouraged – it’s absolutely possible! You are not alone in your struggle, and you don’t have to stay where you are! Let this be the day you take that first step – to become the person you were made to be and fulfill the unique calling in your life.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 17 years of experience in the field. I consider it a privilege to be invited alongside you on this journey. I have worked with a vast variety of clients. I am passionate about helping others to return to their true self and recognize inner resilience. My experience has allowed me to walk alongside others in a variety of situations and my focus is on helping others to find and/or remember their resilience. *Please see below regarding scheduling and availability. My therapeutic approach is person-centered and tailored to meet the needs of each individual with a strong focus on relationship and connection. I offer online therapeutic support so that you can participate from the comfort of any in-state location. My goal is to collaborate with you, and I hope to assist in encouraging and promoting resilience & strength, self-acceptance, development of insight, increased understanding, peace, self-love, and growth. I am particularly passionate about helping disadvantaged populations and those in need of empowerment. I believe that often these communities are overlooked due to unique challenges within the culture and community. I will walk alongside you, providing encouragement and support as you work towards effective change and growth. *Concerning scheduling and availability, at this time, I am only able to provide virtual or phone sessions. If the severity of symptoms requires in-person sessions, unfortunately, at this time, my schedule will not allow me to accommodate. Additionally, I am only able to accept individual therapy sessions and am currently unable to accept couples or family therapy sessions/appointments.

Coping Skills
Depression
Grief
Grief is a deeply personal experience, with no set timeline or predictable path. It can arise after the loss of a loved one, an animal companion, a relationship, or even a shift in identity due to illness or life transitions. Left unaddressed, grief can impact your emotional well-being, relationships, and day-to-day functioning. As a therapist, I offer two areas of specialized support. The first is grief counseling—providing a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can process your loss and find meaning in your healing. The second focuses on helping individuals navigate symptoms related to depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorder, often brought on by significant life changes or chronic stress. My approach is rooted in evidence-based practices and tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're overwhelmed by sadness, struggling with motivation, or feeling disconnected from others, therapy can help you regain clarity and emotional balance. I intentionally maintain a small caseload to provide personalized, attentive care. My goal is to offer a safe, grounded environment where you feel supported and empowered to move forward at your own pace.

I use a down-to-earth, straight-forward approach to address attachment trauma, and how it manifests in adults. I create space to explore all aspects of oneself without judgement. I have a background in medical research, case management, and psychotherapy. I've worked in various healthcare environments that include the ER, PICU, psychiatric floors, crisis stabilization, residential, and outpatient private practice. I'm a proud USC graduate.
