Helping people solve interpersonal conflict, whether it be parent/child, couples, or family therapy is the most rewarding aspect of my career.
I provide counseling services in either English or Spanish. In addition to the rigorous education and training therapists are required to complete, I had an additional three-year training under Joan Rousseau, LCSW, in systems theory family therapy using a strategic problem-solving model. Previously, I enjoyed five years working in the addiction field and six years working in the child welfare field. I have served as an advocate for the Spanish-speaking community since 1985, and my focus in graduate school was on bilingualism-biculturalism-Spanish/Latino. As the mother of three sons, I chose to do focused study on men's issues.

Please email only, easiest to reach me. I’m offering telehealth only at this time. I have been working with individuals and families for two decades. My current specialties include individuals and elders. My training is primarily attachment-based, relational, and emotionally focused therapy as well as jungian focus. And I am fascinated with how we are going to all age well in this culture, so I very much enjoy working with people adjusting to later life. I have also learned since a fairly young age that there is a ton of grief we all need to attend to, I appreciate offering support while people are dealing with pain.

Life can be very overwhelming at times and connections with others are important. Sometimes we have difficulty connecting and overreact and don't know why. Sometimes we have unmet needs but we’re not really sure what those are. Sometimes we are in a loving relationship but we shift from closeness to distance. Sometimes we have difficulty expressing how we really feel and tend to focus on others rather than ourselves. If any of this sounds familiar therapy in a safe setting may be helpful. We all want to feel good about ourselves and our lives. Sharing our issues,needs, and goals can help to move us forward

For many of us, our pains and heartaches can be felt in every aspect of our lives, physically, emotionally, mentally, behaviorally, and relationally. My experience includes assisting children, adolescents, adults, and families who are dealing with problems related to depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, trauma, and major life transitions. These feelings and experiences can be incredibly overwhelming, confusing, and isolating and I am passionate about helping people develop coping strategies, process painful experiences, and heal and grow so that they can live a fulfilling life.

As a bilingual therapist for the past several years, I have had the honor and privilege of sharing in unique journeys of inspiration, cultivation, and transformation regardless of barriers current events present. If you have noticed something is different in your quality of life and want to take steps to improve your life experiences, you are not alone. Perhaps the challenges, difficulties, and stressors from the human experience have changed who you are or where you want to be. Experiencing fears, sadness, worry, and grief is normal and, at times, can impact our areas of wellness.

Hello, and thanks for dropping by. Life can be incredibly lonely and harsh. My goal is to support you, gently and honestly, towards increased self respect and worthiness. Licensed since 1999, I have vast experience with children and adults. Depression, anxiety, complicated traumas and grief; issues regarding foster care and adoption; sexual abuse, parenting, and/or child welfare are areas I'm well versed in. I'm genuine, compassionate, and I tell it like it is. Most importantly, you deserve a therapist with whom you're comfortable. That search can be trying, but it's worthy because you are. I'd be honored to be that person.

Interpersonal Therapists
Is interpersonal therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found interpersonal therapy to be effective for life transitions including retirement, divorce, and job loss. Also, some studies have found it to be just as useful as medication and other therapy approaches. The benefits of interpersonal therapy can last long after treatment has been completed; the individual can use the tenets of this therapy throughout their life.
How long does interpersonal therapy take?
Interpersonal psychotherapy is normally time-limited and focuses on specific problems in the client’s everyday relationships. Treatment can be either one-on-one or take place in a group setting; it tends to last 12 to 16 weeks, depending on the individual client’s needs. If a new interpersonal problem arises in the future, the client may require additional therapy to address it specifically. The timeline and session schedule may vary depending on the client’s challenges as well as their progress. Treatment may conclude with wrap-up sessions to review the client’s accomplishments.
Is interpersonal therapy effective?
Research shows that interpersonal therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of conditions such as depression or anxiety. The approach may also offer a range of benefits that are hard to measure but valuable—including healthier relationships and improved feelings of self-worth. The therapist will give the client practical solutions that can be put into practice. The brief duration of this therapy also means that clients can see changes in their relationships fairly quickly.
What are the limitations of interpersonal therapy?
Interpersonal therapy may not effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as psychosis, chronic illness, or alcohol relapse. Because it is short-term in nature, it may not be the best approach for conditions that need to be tracked, though maintenance sessions are a viable approach under these circumstances.
Can interpersonal psychotherapy be done online?
Yes, interpersonal psychotherapy can be conducted effectively either in-person or online. A therapist with expertise in IPT will be able to adjust their techniques, such as role-playing, to better suit the online environment. Offering online IPT can make it more accessible for clients who have transportation difficulties; it also provides the ideal opportunity to explore challenges unique to digital relationships.
