Are you overwhelmed with problems related to substance abuse or feeling sad, isolated or lacking purpose? I am here to help. I have over 5 years of experience working with individuals struggling with issues with mental health, addiction and life stressors. I greatly enjoy helping and guiding clients who are seeking to realize their full potential for growth and change to live more fulfilling and balanced lives. I believe in empowering my clients to reach their goal of achieving a healthier and more balanced lifestyle.
I have worked as a bilingual therapist providing individual and group therapy in various clinical settings to clients from diverse backgrounds. I am specialized in treating anxiety, depression, substance abuse, relationship issues, self-esteem problems, and stressors related to life transitions. I work with adults, elders and adolescents age 15 and older.
I consider that each person has a unique journey to discover and utilize their strengths and qualities to improve their emotional and physical well-being. Please reach out to me to schedule a 15 minute consultation to determine if I can be able to help you to fulfill your treatment needs and expectations.

I work with clients who are struggling with addiction and mental health. I initially focus on rapport building, and hearing your story in a non-judgmental manner to establish a trustworthy therapeutic relationship, and develop a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs. I believe in therapy being at your pace, and it can be adapted along the way depending on what works for you.
