As a first-generation Hispanic American parent, I understand the impact of intergenerational trauma, cultural expectations, and the desire to break cycles while honoring your roots.

as a teenager—a transition that deeply shaped how I understand identity, belonging, and the ways culture shapes our inner lives.
In our work together, I prioritize trust, curiosity, and collaboration. I aim to create a space where clients feel safe exploring both the visible and unspoken parts of their story. My clinical work is grounded in evidence-based practices, but always tailored to the person in front of me.

I specialize in treating anxiety and depression in children, teens, and adults using evidence-based approaches, including CBT and person-centered strategies.
You may feel like you’re constantly 'on,' navigating a mental treadmill of 'what-ifs' and overthinking that leaves you emotionally exhausted. Whether you are an emerging adult building your future or a parent trying to balance it all, life can feel like a series of overwhelming demands rather than a journey you're actually enjoying. You’re likely seeking more than just a place to vent; you want a space where you can finally feel steady, clear-headed, and capable of breaking the unhelpful patterns that keep you feeling stuck or drained.

It’s a brave step to begin psychotherapy. I've been a clinician for over 20 years and my experience has given me a realistic view of the process. I understand that it is not easy and that it requires time, effort, and money. I know that it's not immediately comfortable to talk about your private life with a relative stranger.

You feel anxious and it’s hard to shut your brain off. People tell you to relax, but it’s not that easy. Your life is going well, but there’s always a new worry on the horizon. You’ve worked hard to get where you are, but it’s hard to sit back and enjoy it. Your standards for yourself feel too high. You tend to doubt yourself and your abilities and look to other people to reassure you. You invest a lot of time and energy into how other people feel, but end up in one-sided relationships. It’s hard to take up space, feel confident, and speak your truth. I help anxious overachievers rest, relax, and find balance in their busy lives.

You might find yourself living with constant worry, a harsh inner critic, or thoughts that get stuck on repeat and feel hard to quiet. At times, even everyday situations can feel overwhelming, leading to a freeze response or a sense of not feeling fully safe in your body. For neurodivergent folks or those impacted by past trauma, these reactions make sense—they’re your nervous system’s way of trying to protect you, not signs of something “wrong” with you. Using a trauma-informed approach, we’ll work gently together to help your nervous system experience more safety, balance, and calm. You do not have to go through this alone.
