I'd say my upbringing inspired me from my home to school. I have seen and heard mental health being mentioned as important and encouraged to take care of. I'd say full circle of having gone to therapy, becoming a therapist, and providing therapy is rewarding in itself, I'd have to put a paragraph explaining why, so I'll leave it as that. I look at therapy as a unique relationship that both mirrors and overlaps qualities of a good friend, parent, sibling, partner, etc., where both the therapist and client focus on tackling the concerns he/she presents in therapy.

What makes my story unique is that I’ve personally been in the client’s seat. It was through my own healing journey that I discovered my true purpose—to offer the same kind, compassionate support I once received during a challenging time in my life. I’m passionate about giving back in this way and hopeful that together, we can bring healing and growth not just to individuals, but to the wider community as well. I’m passionate about helping teens, parents, and individuals feel empowered, understood, and supported. With over five years of clinical experience in both private practice and school settings, I’ve worked with people from all walks of life. I specialize in supporting teens and individuals facing challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, and emotional regulation. In our work together, clients can expect to set meaningful, personalized goals that support emotional growth, improve communication, and strengthen self-worth. Whether you're a teen building confidence, a parent navigating tough transitions, or an individual seeking clarity, we’ll focus on creating lasting change from the inside out. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and connected—both to yourself and those around you.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who can guide you in the process of becoming the person you’ve always wanted to be. I use empathic listening skills, humor, and reflective/challenging questions to help you discover the changes you can make to improve your life. I provide the support you need not only to make these changes, but to recognize, maintain, and celebrate the progress you achieve over time. Together, we will develop realistic goals and find solutions that can make a difference in your well-being. I specialize in working with people who are ready to make the changes they need to improve their lives. However, if you don’t know where to start, what to do, or how to do it, that's ok. Let's join forces to help you find the answers to those questions. My clients describe me as comforting, helpful, relatable, down-to-earth, funny, challenging and calm. They say I have a warm approach and am a good listener. My teenage daughter stated, “mom, you speak in Facebook (inspirational quotes)!” I have longer-term programs to help reduce the effects of anger, manage the symptoms of anxiety and depression, and process grief and loss. I also specialize in working with youth ages 10+ (male and female), utilizing my years of experience working at summer camps in my younger days. It’s been said that I “speak kid” (their style of language) and am dramatic which helps me develop rapport with young people quickly and effortless. Together, we can make the changes that you’re hoping to make in your life!

I work with individuals and couples struggling with issues including addiction, codependency, parenting, body image issues, self-worth issues, anxiety and depression, among others. My work is routed in a depth-psychological approach that focuses on the subconscious, and how issues that we are unaware of are sabotaging our lives. I am outgoing, warm and friendly, and working with me is like having a close friend in your corner, holding you accountable and helping you understand yourself as deeply as possible. In my previous career, I was an actor, and love working with artists of all types. I understand Hollywood and show business and the difficulties that come with creating a career out of an artistic passion. I am a mother and love working with parents who are struggling with the very real difficulties that come with the hardest job in the world. In my work with couples, I help both parties understand what it is that they truly want as individuals, and how to achieve it as a team. I am passionate about my job as a helper and a healer, and hope to be able to help guide you into becoming the best version of yourself.

Being a therapist is a lifelong passion for me and is rooted in my dedication to supporting adults, children, families, and communities in building safety, resilience, and hope. My journey has taken me from my home county of Santa Cruz where I advocated and ran groups for youth living in situations including domestic violence to working in Oakland shelters for youth 13-21. I have worked in serving famillies with San Francisco Child and Family Services, where I partnered with families navigating reunification with their children while providing psychoeducation and crisis counseling during critical moments.

I am a husband, father, and twin brother (I have and identical twin sister). I am also a reiki master and hypnotherapist. When I am not conducting psychotherapy (talk therapy), I enjoy conducting past life regressions to help people resolve past life trauma. I also use hypnotherapy to heal trauma. Hypnotherapy is not covered by most insurances and may result in cash pay. I enjoy helping people identify their wants and needs so they can then identify their goals and dreams. I believe we all have had experiences that have stifled our self-confidence which then causes us to doubt our ability. I enjoy helping people discover that part of themselves that is hidden as a result. I believe the world is a collective of people. We need to take care of ourselves, each other, and the animals we share this planet with.

I create a warm, nonjudgmental, safe, and supportive space where we can explore and address the various thoughts, emotions, experiences, etc. that can make everyday life tough. Life can be full of challenges, and sometimes, seeking professional support can be a game-changer. I’m proud to be able to meet my clients where they are at, as we explore what therapy has to offer. NOTE: At this time I am not able to provide evening or weekend appointments. My current scheduled openings are M-TH 10am - 4pm (Pacific Time) / 12pm - 6pm (Central Time). I grew up in Los Angeles, California and am currently residing in Austin, TX. I earned my Bachelors in Psychology with a Minor in Chicano/a Studies at the University of California Los Angeles in 2012 and my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree at the University of Southern California in 2018. As a Latina woman, I have had the privilege of serving the Spanish-speaking community in addition to serving English-speakers of all different races and backgrounds. Specifically, I have experience providing counseling services to adolescents, adults and seniors. In 2023 I opened my private practice, Alta Therapy Center, with the hopes of making mental health more accessible.

I am certified in (C-DBT) , Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I believe that trauma, that is unprocessed and/or not fully integrated, can become stored in our bodies and lead to somatic, body, and/or emotional "tor-mentors" (Schwartz, 2023). As such, I utilize Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM), such as massage therapy, acupuncture, meditation, and yoga, in therapy sessions and/or bridge outside connections to these resources. I am an Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed clinician and apply parts work in sessions that helps illuminate segments of ourself that holds onto certain burdens.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
