Driven by a commitment to combat the stigma surrounding mental health, especially within communities of color, I embarked on my therapeutic journey. As a first-generation Mexican American therapist, I bring a culturally sensitive approach to my practice. Employing modalities such as Narrative Therapy, DBT, CBT, Play Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, I specialize in addressing anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger management, relationship issues, self-esteem, and work-life balance for clients of all ages.
Since graduating from Dominican University with an MSW and later obtaining an LSW license, I provide a safe, non-judgmental, client-centered space for healing and growth. With several years of experience in therapy, I am dedicated to fostering a supportive environment where individuals can explore and thrive.
Outside of my professional life, I am a loving mother of three who finds joy in video games, makeup artistry, Lifetime movies, and engaging with music and podcasts.

I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges that impact emotional well-being and daily functioning. Treatment typically involves identifying unhelpful patterns, strengthening coping and regulation skills, and improving relationship dynamics. Clients can expect increased emotional stability, insight, and confidence in managing stress and connections.
