Additionally, my specialty is Latinx mental health, specifically working with experience of immigration, acculturation, biculturalism and culturally bound expressions of distress.

I have also served clients from Black and Latino communities for close to six years, and I speak Japanese and Spanish.
One of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves is the time and space for healing and growth. In therapy, my goal is to help you find and nurture your authentic nature, and to honor the wisdom gained from your lived experiences. Our work will consider the various intersecting aspects of your identity and the social, professional, and other cultural contexts in which you exist. I believe that as you experience yourself holistically, on your own and with guidance, you can naturally open yourself to more opportunities for healing, connection, growth, and other meaningful change.

I am a bilingual (Spanish), bicultural and a strong advocate for Latinx mental health awareness and education.
Life can be really difficult to navigate at times. Different spaces in life require different tools and skills. Maybe, you are finding that the tools that worked in a previous space in time, are no longer useful; leaving you feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Maybe, you are tired of the same feelings of guilt, hurt, and shame from your past and you are ready to heal. Maybe you are feeling the intensity of the current time and world we live in, and you need a space to process it all. Whatever the case, it is my passion assisting teen and adult women as they discover themselves and develop what they need to live the lives they desire.

I have a variety of experience working with autistic and high-support-needs children and their families in crisis, as well as Latinx immigrant women, teens, and groups.
I recognize that finding balance, whether it be in your relationships, identity, sexuality, or culture, can be stressful on top of daily responsibilities. You may be avoiding conflicts and putting the comfort of others before your own need to express your true self. Possibly letting others' words, emotions, or reactions seep inside you and take the space of your own. This can leave you feeling drained, exhausted, or not good enough. It can be painful and scary to go through this alone. You deserve to have the life you wish to live. I know what it’s like to feel misunderstood, unsupported, or different from those around us.

It wasn’t always easy growing up or getting through my 20’s. I felt like the world was up against me and I couldn’t make any mistakes, especially as a young professional of color. I focused on trying to be “perfect” so that I could escape harsh judgment that I knew I’d receive anyway. Instead of experiencing triumph from my efforts, I ended up exhausted and burnt out. I soon discovered how my past affected me. Now, I guide others in discovering how parts of themselves and their past have led them to having similar experiences. I assist in showing clients that they can make mistakes to grow and gain life lessons.
