I provide services in both English and Spanish. As a clinical mental health counselor, I believe the relationship between client and therapist is the most important part of the process. It is imperative that client(s) can trust me, and I provide a safe place for my clients to let themselves be vulnerable. I offer a judgement free atmosphere where my clients can grow and learn how to be the best version of themselves, to recognize their strengths and enhance coping skill using various modalities.

Years ago, when I began the journey to become a therapist, I found a letter written by my younger (8y/o) self. The letter said, "when I grow up I want to be a person that helps others, like a psychiatrist, a teacher or run a daycare." This letter is now on my wall in a frame to remind me everyday of the innocence of our youth. My drive rises from a place where we all have insecurities and we rise above and beat them. If it is from our trials that we learn how strong we can truly be.

Are you stuck repeating the same behavioral patterns that cause distress and you want to change? Are you ready to stop feeling sad, irritable, anxious, or overwhelmed? Are you struggling with identity issues or existential questions? Every individual experiences serious and/or elevated negative emotions brought on by circumstances, family, friends, or others, at some point in their lives. Feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, worry, loneliness, etc., can hinder your ability to experience a successful life full of joy and tranquility. As your therapist, I can provide support in your journey towards personal growth and healing.

Currently accepting new clients. Tired of fighting the sense of depression, anxiety, or loss of control brought about by traumatic events? Are you looking for help with your relationship? My clients tend to be goal-oriented, and are willing to invest time into their own lives or in their relationships in order to change them. With a few exceptions, our work will be limited to no more than 20 sessions to help maintain that focus. Therapy doesn't have to be a life-long experience for most people. NM Clients: While I am licensed in NM, I no longer have an office in the state. Thus, all NM appointments are via telehealth.

Problem gambling is one of the most hidden addictions in the U.S. due to the shame and stigma associated with gambling problems. Many people still mistake problem gambling for a moral problem or simply see it as poor choice making, rather than understanding the complex brain hijacking that problem gambling is for some people who can’t quit. Several neurotransmitters including dopamine, serotonin, glutamate, opioids, to name a few, are acting simultaneously on the brain during problem gambling.

We all know what anxiety feels like. We get butterflies in our stomachs, our hearts pound; we worry and fret, or feel jittery. This can happen when we are alone, in social contexts, elevators, in the car, or even just thinking about it. If worries and fears, anxiety, panic, or insomnia related to anxiety are preventing you from living your life the way you’d like, you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts and physical changes like increased blood pressure. In short it is our body’s response to a perceived threat.

Immediate Openings Available! I work with clients to create a safe place to process what is happening in your life, build a therapeutic relationship, and look at the whole self: spiritual, physical and emotional. Feeling safe enough to look at what's not working in your life right now, and having a therapist with the wide range of skills to help you shift in the areas you want to, can make all the difference. We can all often not feel assertive and or able to be connected in relationships, and I can help you connect to yourself and your intuition to shift patterns that aren't serving you.

My practice focuses on recovery from substances, grief & loss therapy, parent coaching, guidance through the criminal justice system, and dealing with change at any life stage

Evolution can be messy. Healing and growth are non-linear processes which may feel challenging at times. A holistic approach to healing ensures that we are addressing all facets of the human experience, creating a space to discover our truest and most authentic selves, even when it feels like a hurdle. Dr. Seuss (Theodore Geisel) put it best, “Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.” I aim to make therapy a safe container where those questions can be explored, either one-on-one in an individual therapy session, or for couples, in a joint session.

If you are dealing with a difficult situation, feeling overwhelmed and hopeless or unable to control your emotions, afraid and stressed out, or depressed and without energy or will, in a critical time or looking to understand more about life and improve yourself as human being, we can talk about and explore different ways to deal and overcome it.
