My website
I was born in San Salvador, El Salvador (South America), and I am a psychotherapist working in Green Valley/Sahuarita, Arizona providing services to children, adolescents, and adults. I am bilingual in Spanish and have experience working with a wide variety of cultures, diverse groups and situations. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana and a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 1997 at Lesley University in Cambridge Massachusetts. I am certified EMDR therapist and a registered play therapist. I have received training in CBT, DBT, DNMS, ADHD, and Mindfulness
I have worked with sexual abuse issues, emotionally disturbed and at risk adolescents, survivors of human trafficking, torture, and domestic violence. I have also worked as a Military and Family Life Consultant and a Disaster Relief Therapist. I work with children adolescents, and adults dealing with issues of depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and grief.
As a therapist, my goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, qualities, and resources, so you can lead a life that is more enjoyable. By applying evidence-based therapy approaches and techniques, you will change old behavior patterns, negative perceptions, and/or beliefs about yourself that may be holding you back from experiencing a fulfilling life

I often use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy and Play Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and the most appropriate way to help you make progress. With EMDR we'll focus on processing traumatic/stressful events and reduce their emotional impact. With Play Therapy, we'll use play as the primary mode of communication.
