"We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty." (Maya Angelou) I understand that as we experience life we will inevitably encounter obstacles and stressors that challenge us to change. I also believe these moments present opportunities for transformation. I recognize that life transitions and personal experiences can sometimes be overwhelming, however they can also be valuable seasons with the potential to generate "peak and valley" experiences that can alter our life course.

I’m really glad you found your way here. Many people I work with are capable, values-driven, and deeply committed to doing a good job in every role they hold. You may be raising children, supporting aging parents, leading at work, serving your community, or all of the above. Your days are full, your mind rarely rests, and your to-do list never seems finished. At night, it’s hard to turn things off because there is always something else to manage, plan, or prepare for, feeling tired in a way that rest does not easily fix. Many of my clients carry a strong sense of responsibility and a belief that they should be able to do it all.

My goal is to plant seeds of change in people who are seeking growth and insight. It's often difficult to seek assistance and once the search begins it is often halted if the right connection isn't made between the client and therapist. I am here to provide a safe space where feelings to be processed and perspectives can be explored.

Like many people, I was skeptical regarding the benefits of therapy, but through my own therapeutic experience, I learned how rewarding it is. As a clinician, I provide the questions and guide the reflection that helps my clients see their concerns more clearly and grow real solutions that serve them. Part of this process is nurturing a safe space where judgment is missing and thoughts become organized. My belief is that change is ever constant and happens around us even when we believe things are static. Many people get stuck in patterns that do not serve them and some of us may even be afraid to go in a different direction.

Does it feel like your inner voice is your worst enemy? I'll help you overcome self-doubt and learn to enjoy the present moment. How? By helping repair the wounds of the past, making way for self-respect and appreciation. There are plenty of reasons you might be so hard on yourself. Maybe you grew up feeling "not good enough."

And now you're looking for therapy (likely feeling pressure to find just the right therapist so you don't fall short in your personal growth and reinforce all of those self-doubts.)

I work with high functioning women of color – artists, athletes, professionals, and visionaries – who seem to thrive outwardly but privately struggle with depression, isolation, and exhaustion from always “showing up” for others. Through culturally affirming therapy that blends DBT skill-building, CBT reframing, and motivational interviewing, I help clients feel seen by someone who understands, learn to be with their emotions instead of battling them, trust their inner voice, and redefine what resilience means.

If you find yourself overthinking texts, feeling anxious when someone’s communication changes, or unsure how to express what you need in dating or relationships, you’re not alone. Many of the clients I work with feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, self-doubt, or confusion when it comes to communication—and want to feel more confident and secure in how they show up.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists
What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?
An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.
How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
