About
Are you feeling unfulfilled in your relationships, choices, and just life? Those who feel detached from those around them often believe they're a burden and bring no value to those around them. If any of that resonated with you, you may feel disconnected from different areas of your life, such as work, relationships, family, and interests. Many individuals go through life never feeling like they belong and lack fulfillment, joy, and a sense of identity. You're here looking to finally put yourself first, to find a sense of satisfaction in your life, and I'd love to be part of that journey so you no longer feel alone.
I take great pride in helping individuals find their sense of belonging and overcoming deep negative schemas that they aren't worthy of love. I do this by helping you work through those fears of abandonment, criticism, and rejection. Forming healthy relationships and attachments are instrumental in my approach, and you'll never feel alone.
Life is challenging, and it's an even bigger struggle when we are our worst enemies. You may feel like a burden to those around you, but you won't have to feel that way in our therapeutic relationship. I invite you to have a free 15-minute consultation with me to ask any questions or concerns you may have.
I look forward to being part of your journey.

Hello there! I am first a mom, a sister, an aunt, a grandmother, and a neighbor and friend. In my life, I have naturally been inclined to help others. Realizing this, I decided to embark on a journey to become a professional helper of other humans, to help improve their life and feel better about their choices. Along this journey, I have become a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I obtained my MA from Pacific Oaks College in 2013 and my Psy. D. Marital and Family Therapy from The Chicago School in 2021. I then started working in counseling and after completing my continued education for counseling studies with an emphasis on alcohol/drugs abuse studies at UCLA in 2020. I support and promote clients to explore their potential and utilize strengths to manage challenges in life. As your therapist, I strive to be authentic and nurturing and come from this understanding, as my true self, and as a South-American therapist. My years of experience and navigating through life while learning the art of therapy and counseling helped me to develop a strong patient-centered approach to join patients where they are at. Feedback I have heard from clients is that my experience working with different cultural backgrounds helps clients feel safe and they report that I have a more inclusive therapeutic relationship with them than other therapists.

I love a mixture of different approaches to therapy to get to the root of what has been difficult or confusing at times during our journey in life.
the ups and downs in our journey in relationships, job stress, and family interactions can be overwhelming and stressful, learning balance is part of what I believe is finding ourselves and identifying the needs versus the wants of life choices and understanding ourselves. I love the empowering of the self.
Working together using a whole self approach addresses what I identify as balance - body, mind, and soul (content or peace) that helps develop a strong relationship with yourself.
Seeking therapy can be a scary adventure, but well worth it.

Sacramento, CA - Accepting clients in CA
You’ve carried the weight of trauma for too long - quietly, often invisibly. Maybe you've learned to survive by staying busy, staying strong, or staying silent. But deep down you know; survival isn't the same as healing. Welcome! I specialize in working with adult survivors of childhood trauma, PTSD, and military trauma who are ready to stop running from the past and start living more fully in the present. If you're tired of feeling stuck in patterns that don't serve you, you're not alone - and you're not broken. There is hope for the possibility of feeling better than you do today.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), licensed in California. I received my Masters from California State University Los Angeles and have been practicing for 5 years. I help adult women (18-60) struggling with anxiety, life transitions, depression, and overall who are wanting to explore their inner world and go on a healing journey. I have found that women need support in reconnecting with their bodies and I am passionate with providing mindfulness based practices in helping women remember and reconnect with the power they have.
