I utilize treatment modalities such as CBT, ACT, DBT and other evidence based therapeutic techniques to help clients with their social-emotional, behavioral, and interpersonal/relational challenges.
My clients usually express experiencing conflicts, inside themselves or with others, and are looking for empathic, flexible, culturally competent, and dynamic clinician to provide support and guidance. My clients have challenges with anxiety, stress, trauma, depression, grief, self-esteem, self/body image, interpersonal relationships (family, platonic, romantic), work-life balance, life transitions, racial trauma, racial identity, challenges with boundary setting, and assertive communication. I provide them an empathetic and supportive environment to explore these challenges, and develop goals and interventions to grow and heal.

I guide clients through personalized support using EMDR, CBT, DBT, IFS, and ketamine-assisted therapy to heal trauma, reduce anxiety, and foster resilience.
You deserve healing, not just survival. If anxiety, trauma, or self-doubt feel overwhelming, you don’t have to carry it alone. As Latinxs, we’re often taught to be strong for everyone else, but true strength is allowing yourself to heal. Using EMDR, IFS, Brainspotting (BSP), mindfulness, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), I help clients break cycles of trauma, find self-trust, and move forward with clarity. For survivors of abuse, healing can feel heavy—but you don’t have to do it alone. Your pain is real, but so is your resilience. Reach out, and let’s take this step together.

I utilize CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness-based approaches.
I am a licensed MFT working with individual adult clients seeking positive change in their lives. I was training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I believe when we change, life changes. Positive shifts such as increased self-agency and improved relationships with others and with oneself start happening for clients on the internal and external levels of their lives. Internally means clients start feeling more relief, and more satisfaction and external positive shifts mean they “get” more of what they want from work, relationships, or other areas of their lives they care about.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.
Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behavior and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.
What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behavior, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioral change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behavior; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
