I have over thirty years of experience working with children, families, couples, individuals, and groups. I have ample experience working Latinx, immigrant families, and multiracial couples. If you have experienced sexual abuse, or are a victim/witness of a crime, suffer from depression, or anxiety, I can help you. If you have relational issues like parents and adult children’s disagreements, or siblings rivalry give yourself the opportunity to improve your relationships. We could improve your romantic relationships. I also work with young adults who are becoming independent. I supervise MFT and Counseling students and clinicians.

I am here to walk the journey alongside you. Life presents many challenges and adapting to a new "normal" is hard and perception can be glum. It feels like your sense of direction is confusing and uncertain. Relationships have lost their meaning, abundance and joy feel unattainable, and support stands at too far a distance for you to feel grounded in love and security.

When life becomes too difficult, we often feel like there is something fundamentally wrong within us. We feel invisible, left out, and misunderstood. As women, we are constantly trying to do more while being told by the world around us that we are not good enough. You need to be the perfect student, the caring daughter, and the supportive friend. You need to be the patient mother, loving partner, and an uncompromising independent career woman. You have to do it all- and you carry an unyielding emotional burden because of it.

You deserve to live a life that promotes love, peace, good health, and happiness! You can live a life that nurtures your growth, promotes healing, and ultimately leads to transformation and achievement of your goals. It all begins with you and your story! There are times in life when we are not feeling love and a sense of wellbeing. It’s okay to not be okay. And, it’s okay to need help dealing with life’s challenges. There is no shame in seeking support; it proves how courageous and strong you are and you should be proud! A wise person recognizes their limits, seeks help, and is not embarrassed to need the support.

At some point in our lives, we will encounter challenges that can cause us to feel overwhelmed, stressed, or anxious. We might struggle with feeling lost with no sense of direction. When we find ourselves in these situations, it can be difficult to face these obstacles alone. Through therapy you can receive the support needed to help you work through those difficult times. My mission in therapy is to provide a safe, open space to help you identify your strengths, develop skills, create goals, and work through challenges in your life.

Feeling steady and rooted in relationships with ourselves and others can help establish a foundation for a greater sense of wellbeing. Through a relational and attachment-focused approach, I support people hoping to have a deeper understanding of themselves and their connections with those around them (friends, family, community, etc.). This may include exploring cultural and ancestral identity, which is another component of someone better knowing who they are and how they engage with the world around them. I am also here for helping professionals seeking support through compassion fatigue and feeling overworked from their careers.

I specialize in "Moms," working mostly with women throughout different phases of motherhood including those trying to conceive, soon-to-be, new and seasoned mothers. Protecting and supporting mental health throughout each phase may look different for each client; however, my approach is always centered on creating a warm, supportive and relatable space. I focus on connection and find space for humor. I normalize so much of what women experience along this journey in becoming "Mom" but also provide real skills to use in daily life.
