Let's Connect (619) 558-5193

My patients are individuals seeking compassionate guidance to overcome symptoms of anxiety, depression, and panic attacks to achieve their goals. Together, we work hard and break down challenges into manageable steps, fostering growth and balance. By using proven techniques and honoring each person’s unique experience, I build trust and help them regain control of their lives.

As a license therapist specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns, and develop coping strategies. Collaboratively, we will address anxiety, depression, and trauma empowering individuals to achieve their therapeutic goals to improve their quality of daily life.

I am here to offer a safe and non-judgmental space where you can safely talk about your emotional distress, and express your concerns. If you are struggling with emotional challenges or simply need guidance, I invite you to reach out and start a conversation. Let us explore ways to address your difficulties and work toward a healthier emotional life.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

For the past five years, I have worked with adults (English and or Español) using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Together, we have learned to implement effective techniques such as cognitive restructuring, understanding the cognitive-behavioral triangle, and mindfulness. These are some of the tools used to help patients regain their normal emotional lives and to thrive individually.
