Seeking someone to listen? To aide you in improving yourself, your relationships, or in achieving emotional strength? I am a bilingual (Spanish & English) Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience in helping individuals, families and couples better their communication, problem solving and conflict resolution skills. I have worked with children and adolescents in improving behavior, emotional regulation and school functioning. I provide a safe, trusting, and confidential place where you can express your thoughts and feelings in a positive healthy manner without fear of being negatively judged. Together we can determine appropriate treatment that meets your needs.
I specialize in working with families who are in crises (suicidal ideation, trauma, abuse, substance abuse). I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief/loss, disability, spiritual, stress, relationship or personal crises.
I look forward to meeting with you and together working towards an improved quality of life, improved emotional health, and improved motivation.
