I am both inspired by and respectful of the time, courage and commitment it takes for you to engage in a therapeutic relationship, especially via telehealth. Utilizing a strength’s-based approach, I believe helping you to set realistic and achievable goals is pivotal to a successful outcome of self-sufficiency and self-care. Working from a place of compassion, flexibility and sensitivity, I also recognize and incorporate in treatment the importance of different life factors (e.g., family, cultural and environment) that heavily influence us socially and emotionally and our abilities to cope with challenges.

The space of therapy is for you to connect with a sense of curiosity, calm, compassion, presence, creativity - your truest Self. We all love, parent, and experience emotions differently. We exist at the intersection of gender, race, culture, age, sexual orientation and many other layers that make us unique as individuals. I enjoy working within this diversity to explore parts of you that are struggling and guide you to find creative solutions. Over 25 years of experience in community and private practice settings, in the US and in Latin America, helped me cultivate a multicultural perspective.

As a mental health provider I assist children, adolescents, and adults experiencing mental health symptoms.

I have had the opportunity to work at a wide range of mental health organizations including public and alternative schools, residential facilities, and outpatient mental health clinics focusing on treating children, adolescents, adults, and their families.

My approach to counseling is one of offering space to client for their own empowerment and assisting my clients in becoming active participants in their thoughts, growth, and lives.
