You don’t have to keep carrying it alone! Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in depression, constantly irritated, or caught in the same painful communication cycles, therapy can be a space where things finally start to make sense. As an Anger Management Counselor, I help clients understand what their intense emotions are trying to communicate and learn practical, neuroscience-informed tools to regulate them with confidence. I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity, and compassion, but I’ll also gently challenge you toward growth. My goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself and the people you love.
I'm bilingual and offer therapy both in English and Spanish. I have training as an Anger Management Counselor.
If you have any questions about whether I'm the right therapist for you, please reach out for a free 15-min consultation. I'd love to chat and see if we're a good fit or provide you with referrals to colleagues who may be best suited to you.

I often use a Client Centered approach in my practice. We'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide which treatment approach will bring about the growth you're looking for. During our sessions, we may use CBT to understand the relationship between your thoughts, emotions, and actions. Depending on your needs, we might also integrate Anger Management.
