The impact of chronic pain often goes far beyond the body, and may leave you feeling depressed, anxious, angry, and isolated. As a pain psychologist, I can help you build effective coping tools to take back control over your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical symptoms so that you can live a meaningful life that is not defined by your pain. I emphasize a collaborative, solution-focused approach to therapy, and will work with you to create a treatment plan that takes into account the unique biological, psychological, and social factors that make you who you are.

My psychotherapy practice is for adults of all ages, couples, and families. I can help you discover the tools you need to develop and sustain satisfying relationships, respond positively to your environment, cope with stress, trust in yourself, actualize your dreams, and live your life with purpose, hope and integrity. Whether you are adjusting to one of life's transitions (new baby, mid-life, new job, divorce, loss, marriage), struggling with anxiety/depression/anger/self-doubt, or attempting to conquer your fears or past trauma, I can provide a safe and trusting environment to help you discover healthy and productive ways of moving through life.

Welcome! As a Mexican immigrant, I understand the cultural, linguistic, and other difficulties that immigrants face. Before working as a therapist, I worked as an elementary school teacher for over twenty years, so I have extensive experience helping children, parents, and families work through diverse issues including academic struggles, socialization difficulties, and familial problems. In my work with clients, I strive to bring the insights of my personal and professional background into the therapeutic relationship.

Have you found yourself at a crossroads in life? Perhaps you are experiencing strain in a relationship or grieving a significant loss. Is your quality of life less than satisfactory? Psychotherapy can help you work through difficult life issues, discover positive solutions, develop meaningful relationships, and live a more fulfilling, authentic life. I provide psychotherapy and counseling to individuals who are ready, motivated and committed to achieving well-being, personal growth and transformation by engaging in the therapeutic process.

In today's tech-driven environment, the pressure to succeed can be overwhelming. Striving to achieve measures of success that do not include what is personally meaningful may heighten stress and anxiety. Therapy is an opportunity to examine the relationship between external messages and one's inner truths. It also supports the process of creating a life that is in harmony with who one truly aspires to be.

Good therapy involves the right match. I also provide a free 30 minute (in person) question and answer session (not counseling). This allows you to understand what your therapy process will look like. If we decide to work together, you will be involved in a very action oriented therapy. Our work will encourage you to practice your new skills during the week. I try to use approaches that you find helpful like: writing in a journal, reading books, support groups, and/or your spiritual practices, that may help while you are in therapy.

Relationships can be difficult even in the best of times. Sometimes you are lying in bed next to your partner but feel world's apart. Or maybe you are lying in bed alone. You wish to connect with your true and authentic sexual and erotic self but something keeps getting in the way (e.g., sexual dysfunction, sex "addiction," sexual pain, sexual shame). You want to improve overall communication in your relationship but nothing seems to be working. I have extensive experience treating couples, anxiety, imposter syndrome, and life transitions.

"I overcame myself, the sufferer; I carried my own ashes to the mountains; I invented a brighter flame for myself.

I am adept at building strategies to cope with feelings that are difficult to manage. We can address how or why you may feel down, frustrated, worried, angry or disturbed.

***NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** Life is a journey full of ups and downs. It doesn't come with a roadmap, and at times we all find ourselves in difficult situations. As your therapist, I will guide you and support you through these rough times by illuminating the path to healing and wholeness. In the face of life's challenges, our tendency is to cope, adapt and get by. Unfortunately some of these coping mechanisms are outdated and no longer serve us, so we go about life just "getting by". Rather than merely "surviving" you could be thriving.
