Do you wonder if your child would benefit from therapy? I offer a complimentary consultation to discuss any questions you may have. I can help your child explore their feelings, make sense of their experience, and develop their full potential. My focus is to help your child become their own therapist by learning techniques and coping strategies to deal with their life challenges. I work well with children and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, social, learning, sleep, and trauma issues. Clients often see improved well-being early on in therapy.

Life can be challenging for children and teenagers as they learn to navigate an increasingly complicated world, define their identity and gain independence, all while trying to manage their emotional responses and fit in socially. It is equally challenging to parent our children and respond to their emotional needs in an effective way. Children, teens and their parents often face difficult hurdles as they navigate the transitions and life changes associated with child and adolescent development.

It is a sign of courage, strength, and drive to seek therapy. We can start to enhance our relationships with others and our quality of life when we are driven to make changes. In order to improve clients' quality of life, I want to provide a secure and encouraging atmosphere where clients feel empowered to identify habits and pick up new, healthier coping mechanisms to help deal with traumas. I strive to raise self awareness while providing support and compassion so that clients can feel comfortable working through previous traumas, present stressors, and future concerns.

The ins/outs and highs/lows of life can be draining and in certain circumstances leave lasting imprints. In the moment, your main goal may be to just get through it. Yet, as time passes you may experience feeling imbalanced, lost or on edge. You may have also learned that you can't “trust people” or may feel apprehensive towards “getting help”. You may even tell yourself "I got this" or "It's not a big deal". You begin experiencing what I like to call "suffering in silence". While I am a firm believer in your capability in handling day to day challenges on your own, my message is to highlight that you do not have to.

I am a Latina Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 32 years of experience working with clients of all ethnic, economic, and religious backgrounds. As a LMFT, I have learned that to understand and help families, adults, adolescents, and children through emotional issues and crises, therapy is most effective when delivered within the family context. It is my belief that all families and individuals are their own experts, and as such, have unexplored resources and means. When effectively utilized, these resources help guide towards a mutually arrived solution.

My ideal client recognizes that depression and/or anxiety are getting in the way of their daily functioning and overall well-being. The client knows change needs to occur in order to live a life that feels fulfilling and is ready to do the work. Taking the first step of recognizing that change needs to happen is key! Together we can cultivate a therapeutic relationship to work on identified goals.
