I am a bilingual Spanish-speaking clinician. My experience includes working with a diverse range of clients from different backgrounds and cultures, who are struggling with various mental health issues. My passion is to bring people healing, whether that is from a traumatic experience or one of life’s many stressors. I believe healing can come from both acceptance and change. Life is constantly changing, and therapy can provide individuals with the skills needed to cope with those challenges.
My approach to treatment is straightforward and honest. I strive to work collaboratively with my clients to help them identify solutions to life stressors that will enhance their lives and relationships. I believe that vulnerability and collaboration in therapy helps people find and achieve their lives worth living. I like to integrate different techniques and modalities as they best fit each person, to help them reach their individual goals.

While attending college, I fell in love with my first psychology class. As I continued to learn about the field, I learned about therapy and grew a passion for helping people heal and improve their lives.
Some of my interests include playing with my dogs, spending time in nature, and most recently learning how to sew and make clothes.
I like to exercise or take my dogs for walks.
I recharge by spending time with my dogs, exercising regularly, and reading books or listening to Podcasts that are going to increase peace, joy, and growth.
I have two dogs a Husky and a Doberman. I love my dogs. I don't necessarily have a favorite story. My favorite memories include seeing them happy and excited.
