Do you wake up in the morning feeling empty, tired, and unmotivated? Are you struggling with issues related to your past, uncontrollable thoughts, anger, grief, communication, anxiety, or major life changes? Are you seeking a more loving, meaningful, and harmonious relationship with your partner and your loved ones but don't know how or what to do to improve it? There comes a time when help is needed from a licensed professional. As Maya Angelou wrote, "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you".

Do you feel different and misunderstood? Does it feel like a struggle to make sense of things? As a latinx, I have often struggled to find my place in a world that feels difficult to navigate. However, nothing makes me more proud than being me, and I want to help you feel better about yourself. My work as a therapist has been guided by fierce passion and compassion. I strongly believe we all have a place in the world, and that we not only fit, but we benefit it with our presence. Safety, empathy, and understanding are values that guide my practice as we work together to heal, grow, and help you understand the world around you.

I am licensed in Florida with 10 years of professional work experience.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I use Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) to help you identify your goals, and develop a plan to achieve those goals. SFBT requires you to actively work towards solutions. It helps you to identify what you do well and then encourages you to use your strengths to reach those goals. Desire is the mainspring of action. You will learn how to match your desire, belief, and expectancy for best results. Harness the power of attention, focus, and concentration for healing; you will learn how to do this persistently and consistently.

I have experience with helping individuals who have suffered trauma, major life changes/challenges, conflict and other stressors that have negatively impacted their lives.

I strive to create a safe and healthy space for everyone and meet everyone with compassion. I utilize several evidence-based therapy techniques and even humor at times.

My goal as a therapist is to support you during difficult life transitions. These transitions may include becoming a parent, starting or ending a marriage, leaving home for the first time, or untying yourself from a religious identity that was once important to you. Transitions and changes may evoke a sense of grief and loss, regardless if it's positive, negative, or neutral. As a Certified Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist, I can help you with the difficult emotions that are associated with these changes. Our sessions would focus on finding the root of your symptoms, processing your grief, and starting your healing journey.

Taking the step to engage in therapy requires courage and vulnerability. As a compassionate therapist, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals seeking support. As the founder of Ripple Effects Therapy, LLC, I believe in therapy's transformative power to create positive change not only within individuals but also in their relationships and communities. Therapy, like a stone creating ripples in water, has the potential to extend its effects far beyond the individual seeking help. My goal is to empower individuals to make meaningful shifts in their lives, leading to a ripple effect that touches the lives of others.
