I am accepting clients for Tuesdays morning/ midmorning. I am a bilingual therapist with experience working with children as young as 10 years old, adolescents, and adults. My approach to counseling is client-centered and collaborative, meaning that you are involved in every aspect of your treatment, and we work as a team to help you reach your goals. One of my biggest passions is advocating for the LGBTQ+ community. Part of my advocacy efforts include a FREE queer support group for high school teens.
Majority of my work has been in helping children and young adults heal from past traumas. I help my clients address a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, dysfunction, and attachments. I understand how cultural and systemic influences can impact how we cope.
A client-centered therapeutic relationship is built on trust and empowerment that you can implement with all your interactions outside of therapy. Seeking help can be scary, but not impossible. I provide support in a nonjudgmental space that allows you to freely explore all you may have been hiding for so long.

Insurance is a disaster. I believe in being as transparent as possible with the process so we can both find a way to coexist with insurance.
