Hi! I’m Isabel, a LGBTQIA+ therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes in the power of compassionate, collaborative healing. I’ve been in therapy myself since high school, which first inspired me to become a social worker. That experience sparked a lifelong passion for expanding access to mental health care and supporting others on their paths toward healing. My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed, strengths-based perspective. I believe healing isn’t about “fixing” what's broken—it’s about reconnecting with the parts of ourselves that already hold resilience,
I take a thoughtful, respectful approach to therapy, grounded in real curiosity about your story and what’s helped you get through hard things. I use evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and the Gottman Method for couples to help you feel more grounded and supported.
Whether you're working through stress, identity questions, relationship challenges, or just trying to understand yourself better, I aim to create a space that feels safe, collaborative, and affirming.Clients often leave sessions feeling more grounded, self-aware, and empowered to make intentional life choices.
