I accept Husky/Medicaid. I truly believe that therapy is for everyone. Adversity happens to all of us in various stages of our lives. Whether you are experiencing depression or anxiety, struggling with life transitions, having relationship issues or lacking joy and contentment in your life- therapy can help. Together, we will peel away the layers and find the root of the problem. Through thoughtful intention and action, you will gather the confidence needed to strive in the face of adversity and create your vision of wellness.
I'm a LCSW certified in perinatal mental health with over 16 years of experience. I work with individuals of all backgrounds. Being Spanish speaking and a first generation Latina, my goal is to provide a safe space that is culturally competent and rooted in the understanding of the shared experiences and unique perspectives you have.
You are resilient and capable of achieving balance and contentment in your life. By being proactive, you have already taken the biggest step on your path to mental wellness. Together, we will build on your strengths to develop the building blocks needed to achieve maximum wellness. I would be honored to begin this journey with you.
