As a licensed therapist in California, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and personal challenges. My practice centers on women's mental health, with a deep understanding of multicultural experiences and family dynamics. I bring expertise in addressing communication challenges, body image concerns, postpartum experiences, and immigration-related stress.My bilingual background in English and Spanish allows me to connect authentically with diverse communities. I am committed to creating a compassionate, affirming therapeutic space where clients can explore whatever they are holding.
I am bilingual. I offer an empathetic listening ear with experience in CBT and a cliented centered approach.
My approach honors each individual's unique cultural context and lived experiences. Drawing from evidence-based practices, navigating family of origin issues, codependency, eating-related challenges, and complex interpersonal dynamics. My goal is to empower individuals to develop healthier relationships, stronger self-understanding, and personal growth.

Your first session will be centered on narrowing down what you expect to gain from therapy and learning more about what your goals are. My practice is centered on the client. Meeting the client where they are and navigating their goals. I walk alongside my clients as new coping skills and tools are learned. I believe positive rapport is essential to the success of the clients therapeutic journey.
