Therapists in California

Hello! I know it takes a lot of courage to come to therapy, so I’m glad you’re here. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space to process your current challenges, and help you build on your inherent strengths to create your unique path to wellness. My clinical experience includes working with young adults and adults in a variety of clinical settings over the past twelve years. My approach to therapy is client-centered, strength-based, and solution-focused.

My goal is to increase self compassion and compassion for others as individual women over 18 navigate their personal, academic and professional lives via telephone sessions. Due to a back injury which prevents me from sitting for long periods of time, I am only taking individual female clients over the age of 18 for telephone sessions. I enjoy spending quality time with friends and family, comedy, theatre, filmmaking, creative writing, improvisation, nature, traveling, film and television, documentaries, dancing and making art of all kinds. I graduated from the High School for Performing and Visual Arts in Houston, Texas. In college, I studied theatre, documentary film and creative writing. I have a BA from Columbia College Chicago. While in Chicago, I was on the faculty at the Second City Training Center where I directed and co-wrote original sketch comedy revues and taught acting and improvisation to children, teens and adults. I received my master's in clinical psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles. I am currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

I have been in the field of trauma healing and recovery since 2007. I specialize in helping latinx women heal from complex childhood trauma stemming from sexual abuse. Sexual, emotional, and physical abuse in childhood. Sexual violence. Interrupted or traumatic attachment in infancy/childhood. I help you process and heal from your childhood traumas by helping you tap into those deeply rooted unconscious & conscious memories. Traumatic Memories…ARE NOT ALWAYS “memories” they can also show up as: -Distressing and intrusive ideas and/or thoughts. -Direct flashbacks that leave you completely overwhelmed! -Memory lapses during childhood and/or general amnesia. -Dissociation. -Physical symptoms and/or diseases. -Deep intuitive hunches that something happened even if you don’t know exactly what. -Depression and severe Anxiety. Regardless of how your childhood trauma shows up, I can help you! With my help, we peel each layer to connect with the Wiser Part within you. Connecting to this Part within you finally gives you the clarity & healing to break free from the emotional, psychological, and physical shackles of your childhood trauma.
