Asking for help can be a very difficult thing to do. Finding a therapist with whom you feel secure and comfortable can be equally daunting, especially when you are in the midst of emotional and psychological pain. I am invested in cultivating a safe, supportive, and trusting connection intended to improve your choices and enhance your relationships with yourself and others.

Each individual & family has a story, though sometimes it may feel like you're no longer in control of how it's being written. I like to work with my clients so they become masters of their own story. In therapy, I take a client-centered approach to finding what works for each individual. I remain challenging yet sincere, open & non-judgmental to cater to client needs while ensuring a high standard of quality care. Therapy is a collaborative adventure to discover new skills or improve upon existing skills in order to create a more fulfilling & well-balanced life.

That feeling you get when you can’t remember the last time you felt an intimate connection with your partner; it’s deep and it’s painful. Lying in bed, crying yourself to sleep as quietly as you can just hoping your partner reaches their hand out to hold you. You’re stuck swimming in your head about how this happened, and constantly trying to figure out if it’s you or if it’s them. Either way, it’s terrifying to think you may never feel that kind of connection again, no matter how or why. All you know for sure is you so desperately want it to change.

My practice is currently full. I work with adults struggling with trauma-related symptoms, depression, anxiety, social anxiety, grief, life transitions and those interested in making healthy lifestyle changes. I believe change is possible when people feel safe to explore their values, hopes, dreams, commitments, and purpose, as well as their disappointments and hurts. I aim to help clients "slow down," encouraging reflection and insight, and the development of healthy coping strategies to create sustainable change. My stance is curious and flexible reflecting my belief that my clients are the experts on their lives.

Accepting new clients! My personal philosophy is that through human connection, we can foster the motivation needed to take brave steps toward seeing an old pattern through a new perspective to create positive change. Therapy serves as a road map, illuminating the path so the client can make conscious choices. My attitude is one of respect and acceptance of each client's self-image and world-view allowing for the creation of a safe, therapeutic container.

Are you in a place where you need to talk about gender identity and/or trans issues? Or maybe you identify as trans, gender nonconforming, gay, lesbian, bisexual, or queer and need to talk about other issues but don't want to have to educate your therapist. I can help. As a therapist, I create an environment of safety, respect, and empowerment for you, and I appreciate the powerful influence of culture, community, and beliefs that make your experience unique. I believe you have the inner strength and resources you need. I am here to be your collaborator in healing and change.

I believe that all people can benefit from therapy at one or multiple points in their lives. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults for individual and couple's therapy. Common presenting issues that I work with include depression, anxiety, relational conflict, and trauma. I am particularly passionate about working with young adults, trauma survivors, and new/expecting parents. Ideal clients are committed to attending appointments consistently and are interested in creating meaningful change.

Each of us goes through periods where we feel stuck or overwhelmed, and the path through has become difficult to find. My hope is to provide a space and relationship where you can better understand yourself and find the freedom to move forward again. From the first meeting, I approach therapy as a collaborative process where it is most important that you feel understood, supported, and accepted. I value being able to support people of diverse identities and backgrounds. Your many cultural contexts are important to me in understanding the shape of your life and struggles.

Welcome! I am an LPC-Associate trained in a program for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists with an emphasis in Depth (Jungian-influenced) Psychology through Pacifica Graduate Institute, where I graduated in 2010. While I pull from a variety of theories in my work (Jungian, Rogerian, Attachment, Psychoanalytic, Narrative, and Expressive Arts Therapies), and I use various skills-based approaches in session (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Play/Sandtray Therapy, and EMDR), I strongly believe that it is the therapeutic relationship, not the framework utilized, that truly helps people

My clinical practice focuses on adults and adolescents aged 14 and up. I work with a variety of presenting issues but specialize and enjoy working with depression, anxiety, PTSD, healing from historical trauma, couple’s therapy, and helping clients understand the mental health link that is common in people who are experiencing chronic physical pain.

My ideal client is anyone that is aware they would like to live a more fulfilling life, motivated to make changes, be open to new ideas and possibilities and learn to approach those possibilities with curiosity. They are willing to face their fears and have the desire to learn to trust themselves. They are able to accept and receive compassionate support, but feel empowered to communicate what is true for them, what works for them, what their needs are, etc.

However you are feeling at this moment, you have deep, natural sources of resilience inside you. My job as a therapist is to help you tap into the resources of your mind, body, and spirit, so that you can take charge of your own healing and growth. Often, the feelings, thoughts, and behaviors causing us the most difficulty right now have their roots in old coping strategies that once helped us to survive and care for ourselves. If you are struggling or stuck now, it may be because you are ready to let go of these old patterns and find new ways of being.

Witnessing our mental landscapes can be uncomfortable. We often get caught in patterns of thought that are as chaotic and unpredictable as the weather. We might wish for clear blue skies when what we have is a lightning storm, or for a sunset to never end as night quickly approaches. But it is this very yearning that makes us suffer, and it is embracing the inevitable transience of this moment that sets us free. We can’t control the weather, no matter how hard we strive. We can learn how to walk confidently in the direction we want to go, even in the pouring rain.

Any of us, from adults to very young children, can experience life challenges that require the caring support of other people. Sometimes we need help to navigate these challenges, and to heal, reorient, and move forward in our lives toward better health and wholeness. When the emotional support of friends and family is not enough, establishing a safe, collaborative relationship with a psychotherapist can be a valuable resource.

Change requires being both vulnerable and strong. As a therapist, I strive to provide a safe and authentic space that encourages vitality and growth; so people can find meaning and healing in their lives.

Tengo muchos años trabajando en español y me siento muy conectada con gente de la comunidad Latina. Todos necesitamos alguien que nos comprendan, valoren y apoyen. Yo pienso que cada persona tiene la capacidad para recuperarse de experiencias y situaciones difíciles. My philosophy of therapy includes helping you appreciate the inner wisdom, resiliency, courage and strengths that you already have. I have the hope of a better life for you enjoying a fulfilling, joyous and satisfying life until you can envision that reality for yourself.
