As a bilingual Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I am dedicated to providing a safe, compassionate, and culturally responsive space for individuals, couples, and families. With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in trauma-informed care for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, as well as therapeutic support for couples navigating complex relationship challenges. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I ensure that each person feels seen and understood, regardless of their background.
My approach is integrative, blending Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to create a path toward healing and growth. Whether you're dealing with trauma, navigating family dynamics, or seeking a stronger connection with your partner, I will support your journey in a way that feels respectful and empowering.
If you're looking for a bilingual therapist who understands the complexities of trauma and relationships, I welcome you to reach out. Together, we can work toward creating the positive change you deserve.
