As a bilingual (Spanish) Licensed Professional Counselor and AT Therapist my goal is to be a witness to my participant's personal growth by engaging them in an adaptive and creative path of self-exploration. My therapeutic focus is a multicultural connection between an artistic and therapeutic approach to a self-integrative healing according to the participant's needs. I'm experienced working with a wide range of diverse populations, ages, and mental health issues.

We all have moments in life when we need a little extra support, care, and connection. I provide a space where people can feel safe to enter and unpack their innermost thoughts and experiences. I strive to learn about each client, their backgrounds, personality structures, and where they want to be. In my practice, I lead with curiosity to better understand the world dynamics that shape us, and help guide my clients through the process that will lead to lasting change.

I work with individuals and couples looking to improve the quality of their relationships and work through emotional and behavioral difficulties. I am also interested in helping men and women navigate the challenges that come with the end of a relationship.

I’m particularly drawn to young adults and adults in my practice. As a therapist, I will challenge and encourage you to make necessary changes.

Welcome! I am a therapist dedicated to guiding individuals on their journey towards healing.

I know from my own experience how difficult it is to take the first step toward getting help. Once you've done that, you must face the difficult task of choosing a therapist. This is a very important and personal decision since the success of treatment is dependent on the client/therapist relationship. I believe the therapist/client relationship should be a collaborative one where we work as a team toward your goals.

Life gets difficult. -Our distress may make us uncomfortable, overwhelmed, anxious, angry, sad or depressed. -Maybe we have experienced job loss, a big move, had a significant relationship end, or experienced a major shift, change, or transition in our life. -Really, we want to feel "better" and "happier", but how do we get there? Short-term counseling or coaching can help, while sometimes we needed to address deeper pain and patterns in long-term psychotherapy. Each of us is different, but maybe you found your way here because you are ready to let go, ready to grow, and ready for something new, different, and better for your life.

Navigating transitions, experiences, and wounds life offers us can feel overwhelming and sometimes impossible. I believe in an integrative approach to therapy that utilizes a strengths-based, trauma-informed lens. I work to create an empathetic, understanding, and non-judgmental environment for clients to explore their concerns. I deeply value each client's journey and work diligently to create a relationship based on trust and connection. My goal as a counselor is to help clients increase their resilience, self-compassion, and self-understanding.

My overall goal is to partner with you to relieve suffering and promote well-being. If you are seeking lasting behavior change, spiritual growth, improved relationships, emotional healing, adaptation to health challenges or access to the power of your subconscious mind, we may be a good match. I enjoy collaborating with those who've had less than satisfactory experiences with prior therapy, or who feel stuck in their efforts to move forward in life. My approach is intuitive, empathic and grounded in evidence-based methods.

Relationships...with others and ourselves... are at the core of human experience. I work to empower couples, individuals, and families to live lives of meaning, connection, love, and happiness.

The goal is reconnection. I also utilize Brainspotting, one of the new generation therapies, to promote a more rapid and deeper processing, integration and healing from a variety of psychological problems.

Why spend your energy trying to cope with what is, when you could use it to create what you really want? I love working with people who are motivated to make significant life change, even if they don't know where or how to begin! I focus on teaching clients to separate thoughts from feelings, tap into their inner core of intuitive awareness, and use their own inner guidance system -- to move toward their goals, and away from old patterns and obstacles to growth. Along the way, we bring in interesting discussions, good books, homework, mindfulness exercises, and of course, some humor!

Our time together will allow you to know yourself better and lead to change, whether you are seeking immediate symptom relief or longer-term transformation.

I get so much fulfillment and pride in being a therapist, and I strive to bring that passion into my practice. I aim to build your teenager or child's narrative of therapy as one that is as empowering as possible for them to feel capable in tackling their personal challenges. Together, your child and I will promote their self wellness as something that is not a chore, but a priority.
