English
| español I am a bilingual, bicultural, second-generation Chicana with over ten years of experience working with diverse individuals, families, and communities. I provide individual therapy to adults 18+ and family therapy to adult children and their parents/relatives. I focus my practice on Black, Indigenous & People of Color (BIPOC). I am particularly interested in working with children of immigrants, immigrants, and members of the fat and LGBTQ+ communities. As a cis woman, I am committed to creating a safe therapeutic space for this community, especially Queer & Trans Black, Indigenous & People of Color (QTBIPOC).
I am trained in Adaptive Internal Relational (AIR) Network Therapy, Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET), and motivational interviewing and integrate a wide range of therapeutic approaches, including strengths-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, mindfulness, harm reduction, self-compassion, and psycho-education.
A trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship is very important, so I strive to create a judgment-free, respectful, and understanding environment. I take a relational, person-centered approach and a systems approach to allow each person to be seen within the context of their family, community, and cultural systems.
