I believe that every human being has value, deserves respect, benefits from meaningful relationships, and has the capability for self-actualization. Therapy is a powerful process not only to overcome adversity, obstacles, or negative patterns in thinking, behaviors or relationships that may be causing suffering, but also it can be an extraordinary opportunity to explore and find your uniqueness, potential and strength in ways that you may have not considered before.

First off, thank you for taking the time to read my profile. In my time as a counselor/therapist I have found that the process of selecting a therapist is at best awkward, and at worst terrifying. People simply don’t wake-up feeling upset one day and think, “Wow, I feel yucky, I think I will talk to a therapist.” More often than not a therapist is considered as a last resort, or after coming to a conclusion of, “I don’t know what else to do.”

I focus on helping individuals feel accepted and safe while supporting them in reaching their goals. I strive to help people find satisfaction in all aspects of their lives and to become the best friend, partner, parent, sibling, and SELF that they can be.

True change comes from within, I believe that no one should have to figure out life alone. I help individuals live to their full God-given potential. If you are tired of living in a rut of disappointments and the desperation of not knowing how to move beyond the circumstances you find yourself in, reach out to me. If you are struggling with setting healthy boundaries, anxiety, depression, ADHD-related lack of focus or organization, making poor choices, and unhealthy patterns toward relationships, or find yourself distant from God, reach out to me. I am fully bilingual in English and Spanish and I want to walk alongside you.
