Transform Your Life Through Therapy. For over 15 years, I've cultivated a safe, judgment-free sanctuary for clients to self-discover and heal. As an attuned, compassionate therapist, I gently guide you through your journey. My integrative approach draws from evidenced-based methodologies like CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, Trauma and Attachment Based Therapies, mindfulness practices, and somatic psychotherapy. By rewiring your story, you'll experience a profound transformation that extends far beyond the therapy room.

My philosophy is simple in regards to problem solving, effective communication, improving relationships, working towards reaching a personal maximum potential and in healing from trauma. It’s to identify thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs. I believe that as soon as a person is able to communicate these four insight oriented drives, life immediately begins to improve and problems get solved. While this may sound easy, for many people it takes time to gain insight, self-evaluate, uncover and accept why we are the way we are (ie: biology and life experiences), decide on and follow through on changes to make in their life.

Hi there! You should be proud of yourself for taking the first step of your mental health journey. Finding the right therapist takes courage, patience, and time. I am here to tell you that the wait is over! I am dedicated to helping you be your best and happiest self. In the therapy room, I will create an environment where you feel heard, supported, and comfortable. Building a strong therapeutic relationship and using it as a catalyst for change, healing, and processing is extremely important to me.

My training background combines clinical psychology with children, adolescents, and adults, with highly specialized training and research in neuropsychology. I specialize in neuropsychological assessment, which includes diagnosing neurological and psychiatric disorders, including ADHD, learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, anxiety and depression. My assessments provide a detailed look at brain functioning, assessing different skills, such as memory, attention, executive functioning, language, academics, and emotions, and how they interplay to create unique learning profiles for each individual.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and certified school psychologist specializing in helping children, adolescents and their families. I also work with adults seeking to improve their parenting relationships with infants, children and adolescents. A particular area of focus is in supporting individuals facing fertility, pregnancy loss and postpartum challenges. I can provide home-based support to new parents seeking to have the best possible attachment with their children. I offer compassionate care focused on both relieving psychological distress and improving the quality of individual and family life.

I'm a trans, queer, Mexican-American therapist who works from an attuned, responsive, and relationship oriented approach. As all of us have a tendency to get lost in a narrative or storyline, I invite clients to slow down with me and get intimate with their direct experience—the raging emotions in the body, the coming and going of thoughts, the feeling of shaky vulnerability, the rage, the loneliness—honoring it all and creating a safe holding space for these lost emotions, perhaps for the first time ever. In addition to psychotherapy, I offer end-of-life support, and coaching.
