If you’ve found your way here, you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. You're not alone—and you don't have to figure it out by yourself. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where we can explore what’s holding you back and help you reconnect with your strengths. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions, and I tailor therapy to your unique needs using evidence-based approaches like Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). These methods support deep healing, emotional clarity, and long-term change.

Bilingual therapist for Latina women in Orlando, Kissimmee, Lake Nona and surrounding areas. You look like you're holding it together, but inside you feel anxious, emotionally drained, and disconnected from yourself. Maybe life shifted: the empty nest, relationship stress, or years of putting others first. You overthink, feel guilty for wanting more, and wonder who you are now. You want calm, clarity, and confidence—to feel grounded, emotionally safe, and whole again.

I offer a welcoming, compassionate, and non-judgmental space to share your story. Sometimes, problems we face — whether they come with a diagnosis or not — may be overwhelming, debilitating, paralyzing, unhealthy, or destructive to ourselves or our relationships. I work collaboratively to help people deconstruct and free themselves from the grip of problems that may be overwhelming and oppressive and move toward preferred ways of living and thriving.

You don’t have to explain yourself. You don’t have to have the right words or know exactly what’s wrong. You just have to be willing to show up, that’s enough to start! I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and life transitions that have left them feeling lost or uncertain. I'm here to help you understand what's actually driving your experience and build real, lasting capacity for change. I'm direct, I'm curious, and I genuinely care about the people I work with in a way that makes me think about your progress long after our session ends.

Reaching out is often the toughest step and it is very important (and can be rewarding) to find the right fit! Each individual has their own unique story and experiences and therefore deserving of an individualized approach to therapy. The therapeutic relationship should foster one's personal journey to self exploration and growth. My goal is to help you find your best fit and support you in your personal growth, healing, and self-empowering journey. My approach is often described as supportive, warm, empowering, challenging (when you need it), and humorous.

My experience comes from working with adults and older adults (65+) in behavioral health settings including 3 years in a hospital outpatient clinic.
It's not easy to choose the right therapist. You're looking for someone who has that perfect mix of experience, skill, and warmth so you can entrust them with your emotional health and well-being. You need a therapist who will listen carefully but also respond, offering a new perspective and helpful guidance. Reducing anxiety, addressing low mood, managing life changes, and navigating grief and loss are issues I can help you with. In our work together, you will learn important coping skills to overcome adversity, and improve overall quality of life.

I work with Individuals and Couples who’ve carried more than they’ve ever said out loud, trauma, chronic illness, or a lifetime of holding everything together for everyone else. You may feel overwhelmed or tired of pretending you’re fine. You want relief, clarity, and a therapist who truly sees you. Your goal is to feel grounded, supported, and more in control of your life, and to finally experience the kind of healing that lets you live on your own terms again.

You are not someone who lacks self-awareness. You've likely spent years — perhaps in therapy, perhaps on your own — developing a clear and honest picture of yourself. You know the patterns. You can trace them. You may even be able to predict, in real time, exactly what you're about to do and why. And still, something repeats. This is the territory I work in. For over 15 years, I've worked as a clinical psychologist with adults who are thoughtful, capable, and genuinely motivated... and who find themselves frustrated by the gap between insight and change.
