DON’T WAIT, NOW IS THE TIME! Sometimes it’s difficult to share your life with others and talk about your struggles; however, talking through hard times can be one of the most empowering first steps you can make toward healing. Whatever your hardship is, help with an ongoing issue or time for a difficult transition, it would be my pleasure to work with you to develop an individualized plan and address your trepidations. I value your thoughts and self-determination and will gladly give an ear to support you when needed.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, addiction specialist associate, and certified integrative mental health provider who takes a holistic and trauma-informed approach to treating mental health and substance abuse disorders. Currently, I am going through training to become a certified ketamine-assisted psychotherapy provider. I have experience working with clients on a variety of issues, such as anxiety and panic disorders, depression, personal growth and self-esteem, general relationship challenges (family, friends, co-workers), and Addiction and substance misuse.

Infidelity? Porn addiction? Sex addiction? Trauma? All of these issues can be tough to deal with, but I can help. I have specialized training so that you're not wasting your time and money. Not just talk, talk, talk that gets you nowhere. I used evidence-based treatments so that you're feeling better soon. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), a Certified Partner Trauma Therapist (CPTT), and a Certified Multiple Addiction Therapist (CMAT), I'm trained in many addictions, including substances. Most therapists aren't trained in all these issues. I offer EMDR, as well. There is hope. Together, we'll figure things out.

Our approach goes beyond simply talking about your problems—we're committed to helping you uncover the root causes of your struggles and equipping you with the tools needed to overcome them.

I am committed to helping individuals with complex traumas, substance misuse, and situations that negatively impact our lives. My work focuses on using psychodynamic, humanistic, and behavioral approaches to assist my clients with a variety of diagnoses. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to assist my clients in reaching their goals. I am passionate about working with my client while remaining ethical. As a bilingual Mexican with a military background, I genuinely believe that we all come from different roots and are united by trying to achieve a life of fulfillment through the various challenges we face.

As a clinical social worker, I believe in meeting clients where they are. I strive to provide a therapeutic environment that helps you achieve your goals and become the best version of yourself. I have a casual approach to therapy and believe that you are the expert in your own life experience. I want to work collaboratively, combining our shared expertise to help you become the most healthy version of yourself.

If you are like many of my clients, you’ve been through a lot; you've fought to get to this point in life, are driven, and consider yourself a hard-earned-version of personal success in continuous process. Having already done a lot of personal work on yourself, you’ve begun to realize there are some things that you thought you dealt with and put to bed, but for some reason they have started popping up again. You may have an established meditation or self care practice and are noticing some new emotional static. Your established skills don’t seem to be doing the trick and you need help navigating how to move forward.

I encourage all of my clients to strive for personal growth and awareness. Don't allow an unhappy and painful past to define who you are. Try to make peace with what you cannot change.

My clients are high achieving female professionals, business owners, or mothers doing their best to keep it all together. In spite of your success and desires to be successful you find yourself overwhelmed, in unhealthy romantic relationships, feeling anxious, sad or continuing to repeat the same unwanted cycles. There may also be some unhealthy generational cycles you are working to overcome.

I am a Registered Play Therapist working with children who are hard to reach either because they are angry, anxious, or depressed. Children don't express themselves the same way that adults do, rather, they express themselves more naturally through play. Play is a child's natural way of relieving stress and play therapy is the best practice for working with children. Using Play Therapy most children are able to work through issues in a much shorter amount of time. For more information Call today (910) 407-0052 and check us out at www.AtlasChildCounseling.com

We all carry baggage. Both the past and the present can weigh us down. Make time for self-care whenever you can. Why not get going right now?

I understand that many people suffer from anxiety and depression. When we ignore these issues it can have a negative impact on our daily lives. It can affect our personal relationships, the ability to deal with our work environment and prevent us from feeling good about ourselves. Nobody wants to experience this but many of us do and we often don't know how to deal with these feelings. If you're willing to take the first step and seek guidance there is a way to become better at navigating these issues. Sometimes all you need is someone to help show you the path to a better quality life.
