You crave authentic connections both with yourself and with others. You are sick and tired of feeling anxiety, depressed and stressed. You want to improve your relationships, learn how to build confidence and self esteem, heal complex trauma and trust others.

I provide care in person near downtown Detroit, as well as online. My clients struggle with body image, relationship problems, or oftentimes a general sense of not feeling "good enough." Sometimes this shows up as anxiety in a romantic partnership, at work, or in the way they view their bodies. You probably already have some ideas about how your childhood, identities, and social structures impact your mental health, but are still suffering.

También hablo Español! I work with adults who need to heal, let go of past traumas, and shed maladaptive coping mechanisms that came as a result of survival instinct to develop healthy skills to flourish in life. I focus on issues of anxiety, trauma, identity, & interpersonal relationships. I believe our emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual selves influence one another to create our personal experience. Thus I integrate cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, and humanistic therapy, while focusing on each client's strengths to create a custom treatment plan.

Accepting new clients! Sessions in English or en Español. At times we may find ourselves stuck in patterns that no longer serve us or perhaps they never did.

You can’t believe your relationship has gotten this cold. Conversations turn into arguments filled with personal shots, past issues, and defensiveness. It's hard to communicate without feeling judged. You’ve tried countless strategies to get back on track, but nothing works consistently. This leaves you feeling alone, frustrated, conflicted, and desperate. Sleepless nights are filled with thoughts that your relationship might end if things don’t change now.

Men often face societal pressures to appear strong, self-reliant, and in control, which can lead to feelings of isolation. Seeking support is actually an act of strength, and not weakness. Embracing vulnerability allows us to deepen our connection with ourselves, grow, and strengthen our relationships with those we love.

For many of us who have felt different, including those in the LGBTQIA+, we live with the collective trauma of existing in a system that isn’t built for us to thrive as our authentic selves. My hope is that through our collaboration we will be able to explore and identify the experiences and traumas that have led you to seek therapy services, understand how these problem areas don’t impact what is the most obvious, but also understand that sometimes these problems go much deeper, and lastly work through the things we discover to help you push through the discomfort to empower you to live authentically.

Picture feeling like you're constantly walking on eggshells in your own life. Your achievements are impressive on paper, but inside, you're exhausted from maintaining the appearance that everything is "fine." Past experiences replay in your mind, affecting your relationships, sleep, and sense of safety. You've tried pushing these feelings down, staying busy, or telling yourself to "just get over it," but the weight of your experiences continues to impact your daily life.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists
What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?
An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.
How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
