Change can be scary, but therapy shouldn’t be. Receiving help looks different to everyone. It can appear like self-exploration for some, while for others it looks like support when standing alone seems impossible. No matter what impacts you, therapy can offer a guided exploration of what it means to be human. I am a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (LGPC) in Washington, D.C., with a B.S. in Psychology from The United States Military Academy at West Point and an M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University.

It's essential for you to feel understood by your therapist. I strive to create an environment characterized by safety, trust, mutual respect, and even humor. The bond we form allows you to take the emotional risks necessary for deep exploration and enduring change. I offer a free consultation to help you decide if we'd be a good fit. Please join me for a cup of tea to share your story, chart a course for how we might work together, and ask any questions about therapy and how I can help you.

I love working with couples and individuals with difficulty in romantic relationships (i.e. sexual issues, communication, infidelity, divorce), adults who come from dysfunctional childhoods, as well as those with anxiety, impulsivity, and addiction. I also enjoy working with those in non-traditional romantic relationships (i.e. ethically non-monogamous, polyamorous). I am LGBTQIA- affirming and sex positive. I work best with clients who are engaged, thoughtful, and motivated for change. My style is empathic and direct, with a sense of humor. I believe strongly in the therapeutic alliance and the client/therapist fit.

I am temporarily accepting additional clients who genuinely want to transform their life into something better. Is that you? I work with my clients in Spanish because it was the language that shaped our perceptions of the world and the people we lived with at an early age. Even if you grew up bilingual, Spanish was the language your mother and father used. Whether we are immigrants or were born in the United States, it is our ancestral Latino language that contains the roots of our current experience. It also contains the keys to breaking through barriers we are currently experiencing with our health, wealth, and relationships.
