As a therapist specializing in immigration stress and intergenerational healing, I bring a compassionate and culturally responsive approach to counseling. I believe therapy should be a safe, affirming space where clients feel seen, valued, and supported while navigating life’s challenges. My work is centered on supporting Latinx, LGBTQIA+ individuals, adolescents, and young adults. I help clients explore their experiences, build resilience, and develop coping skills for stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and identity concerns, while fostering growth, healing, and self-acceptance in a collaborative, empowering way.
I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, and relationship challenges. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and strengths-based. I am especially passionate about working with underserved communities, including undocumented Latinx youth, and helping clients build confidence, resilience, and self-understanding.
I help clients discover their strengths and resilience through active listening, psychoeducation, and evidence-based care. I accomplish this through CBT, mindfulness, and DBT techniques. You’re seeking support with relationships, systemic barriers, or life transitions for a reason; I’d be honored to walk alongside you in your growth and healing.
