Have you ever wondered why you keep getting into the same relationship, just with different people? Do you have difficulty setting and holding boundaries or truly know what a boundary looks like? Do you struggle to speak your truth? Do you lack self-confidence? Do you lack emotional honesty? Or wonder what it is? Do you have entire conversations in your head before you have the actual conversation? Do you struggle to identify your feelings? Do you spend a lot of time in the future, trying to figure out what will happen and how to either make it happen or prevent it from happening? If you answered yes to any or all, I can help.

I am a bilingual (Spanish) licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a focus on solutions and short-term-outcomes, rather than spending years analyzing the problem. While traditional long-term therapy and in-depth exploration of the past may be appropriate in some situations, it's generally not necessary. Whether it's court-ordered classes, separation, divorce, domestic violence, parenting or co-parenting, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship issues, I'll personalize a plan that guides you to the desired outcome.
