What Can I Help You With? When the weight of past trauma, deep-seated anxiety, or emotional exhaustion makes daily life feel like a constant battle against your nervous system, you aren't just tired—you're stuck. If you are struggling with panic attacks, depression, eating disorders, grief, personality disorders, gender dysphoria, or sexual identity issues, you deserve a safe space. Fluent in Spanish, I offer compassionate clinical care for individuals, couples, and families navigating adjustment challenges or end-of-life transitioning. Let's create an authentic sanctuary for your journey.
As an LCPC, I founded Mindful Haven Therapy, to offer individualized care tailored entirely to your personal growth. By blending evidence-based practices like EMDR Therapy and Trauma-Focused CBT with mindful Eastern philosophies, we target the root of where pain is held so you can process distressing memories and release tension.
I treat human beings as a whole—inclusive of mind, body, and spirit. I am fluent in Spanish, welcome individuals of all backgrounds, and provide culturally inclusive support. Whether you prefer secure in-person therapy at our Frederick office or confidential video telehealth across Maryland, your time is now. Reach out today.

I work with clients who may be struggling with C-PTSD and PTSD or Acute Stress Disorder from painful experiences. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back.
