When a therapist is welcoming and non-judgmental, It is much easier to seek help. I am passionate about working with clients to find more effective communication strategies. There are ways to regulate anger and anxiety and I can help. I can also show you the path toward healing unresolved grief and loss as well as trauma. These issues can keep you from living a healthy life without shame and sadness. You will find my office to be a safe and comfortable setting.

As life moves in ever changing paces and phases, we require relationships that support and gently guide us. In my experience, transitions and major-life events leave people at a crossroad of navigating their past with their present and future. I find that when we are able to examine our past stories with compassion, we are better able to move forward with intention. As a brain-wise therapist, I utilize my own experience and compassion to help children, individuals and families to navigate the seasons of life on their terms with the goal of journeying toward mental wellbeing.

I believe childhood experiences create the template for adult life. Early losses, separations and trauma define the choices of strategies or defenses we use as adults. Pain and suffering can be caused by these early experiences. It is my job as a therapist to join my clients in their journey of discovery of these templates and help them to gain a more fulfilled life. I provide individual, couples and family counseling services in both English and Spanish in a safe, comfortable environment. My approach is tailored to each client, to meet them on their journey of discovery to finding a more fulfilled life.
