Human beings have an innate capacity towards healing and are unconsciously driven to be better psychologically, even when we think we are at our worst. In other words, we already have all we need to get better, we just need to access it. Naturally, our bodies, minds, and hearts seek equilibrium, peace and ultimately joy; a fully embodied human coherence. Together, in a safe, compassionate, and non judgmental environment we can create positive change for you. My personal goal is to be a safe container for you to explore your internal self, while ultimately helping you reach the goals you aim to achieve in therapy. I truly believe in people and their ability to self actualize, heal, and to live life with happiness and satisfaction.

I am a bilingual Spanish speaking therapist who has experience working with children and adults. I aim to provide a client-centered, empathetic and non-judgmental environment. I tailor therapy to the unique needs of each client, based on the problem, goals and the individuals expectations and motivations.

People search for therapy for various reasons.

It could be that you are a part of a newly formed blended family, living together for the first time, and instead of joy you are experiencing chaos. You may be seeking help, because your spouse has received orders for yet another deployment with the military.

All of us face grief, loss, change, and challenges may weigh on us, and/or inspire us to new heights of accomplishment and success. Whether you are in some level of personal crisis, challenge, or just need a tune up, I am honored to assist you. Come and find COMPASSION.

Being an immigrant, a child of an immigrant, a world traveler or an international student has left you feeling disconnected and like you don't belong. You feel alone even though you are among people, busy with school, work and life. You are not alone. Many of us, who uprooted ourselves by choice of our own or someone else, experience these feelings. These feelings are normal. You're human. The isolation and lack of belonging are exhausting and you long to feel better about your life and future.

"There but for the grace of God, go I." This is an expression that resonates and inspires me to help others. The mental health epidemic is a problem that will not go away without the recognition that we are vulnerable and must face it head-on, without judgment, and with compassion.

As a veteran School Counselor and Nonprofit Wellness Director I have many years of experience and training in a variety of therapy specialties. I enjoy working with adults, families and teens.

Together we navigate new coping skills and communication strategies to help them overcome, or accept life's challenges.
