English
| español You may be facing a life-changing diagnosis, grieving a deep loss, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or navigating a major life transition. You're the one who holds space for others—at home, in your community, or in ministry—while quietly carrying your own pain. Now, it's your turn to be supported. If you’re seeking compassionate care that honors your emotional, relational, and spiritual journey, you’ve found a safe space here. I work with adults, teens, and couples navigating grief, loss, anxiety, cancer, chronic illness, spiritual distress, acculturation, relational conflicts & life transitions.
I am a bilingual therapist (English/Spanish) with a background in clinical mental health counseling, psycho-oncology, and trauma-informed care. I believe in meeting you where you are—tuning into your unique story with respect and cultural sensitivity.
In our time together, you'll find a space to unpack what's on your heart and mind, gain clarity, and find hope—even when things feel especially tough. Whether you’re dealing with a health crisis, struggling with your faith, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I’m here to walk alongside you.
Click "Email Me" to reach out—I’d be truly honored to support.
