I am a Latinx Spanish-speaking clinician with a background in health psychology and currently working towards obtaining a certification in sex therapy.
Navigating change in our life, within our community, and with our bodies can feel disruptive and confusing at times. We can find ourselves sitting with anxiety, frustration, or sadness. Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed as an individual in your community. Maybe you are feeling stuck, anxious, or confused in your relationship. Perhaps you are feeling discouraged, disheartened and sad. Reaching out for support can seem foreign and feel challenging. In doing so, you will find yourself feeling comfort and ease, while gaining some clarity for yourself.

I specialize in working with the following: Adult children of immigrants and bicultural individuals navigating identity and belonging, Professionals experiencing imposter syndrome or burnout, Clients struggling with anxiety, relationship dynamics, or boundary-setting, Latinx and BIPOC clients seeking a culturally affirming space for healing
As a first-gen Latina therapist, I deeply understand the challenges of balancing cultural expectations with personal growth. When I started my own therapy journey, I felt pulled between honoring my family dynamics and learning to set boundaries with systems that no longer served me. If you're navigating that same tension—between who you’ve been told to be and who you’re becoming—I’m here to help.

My specialties revolve around survivors of domestic violence, LGBTQ+ individuals, and first/second-generation Latinx individuals navigating generational differences in their family systems.
Often times our small wins and progress gets overshadowed by life’s stressors and chaos. In the space I provide for clients, we will always acknowledge and identify all wins and strengths in hopes to build up self-esteem, confidence, and motivation to move towards goals you may have, as well as developing a healthier thought process. If you’re looking for a space free of judgment, a space to make sense of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors (all while sharing some good laughs!), I encourage you to take the first step towards investing into your mental health. It’s not always easy, but it is always worth it.
