Do you ever feel stuck between who you are and who you think you're “supposed” to be? Maybe you struggle to prioritize your own needs without guilt or second-guessing yourself. Old wounds may still affect how you show up in relationships, or you find yourself repeating patterns that leave you feeling disconnected or misunderstood. If any of this resonates, you’re not alone. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, or just feeling lost or overwhelmed, I help clients make sense of their experiences and move toward a life that feels more authentic and aligned with who they truly are.

As a BIPOC marriage and family therapist, I create a sacred space for fellow people of color and children of immigrants to unpack the generational trauma underlying anxiety and depression. I see you—the one who learned to swallow your feelings, who was taught that vulnerability is weakness, who carries the weight of expectations alongside the exhaustion of code-switching through life's spaces. My work centers on helping you reconnect with el gozo que es (the joy that is) self-love that gets buried beneath the "strong one" persona many of us were forced to adopt.

Do you want results? Are you finding that you keep getting in your own way? That your emotions, trauma, pain, past experiences and anxiety are preventing you from living the life you are meant to live? Or perhaps things are just not clicking no matter how hard you try? The good news is that there is always a way, a technique or perspective that can and will shift you and your life. The catch? You need to be willing to step into the unknown and get uncomfortable.

I work with individuals who feel stuck in patterns they never intended—whether that’s problematic pornography use, sexual addiction, or the painful aftermath of intimate partner betrayal. You may feel shame, secrecy, anxiety, or deep disconnection from yourself or your partner. You might be successful in many areas of life yet privately struggling with behaviors that conflict with your values. Or you may be devastated by betrayal, seeking clarity, stability, and a path toward healing, accountability, and restored trust.

You may look functional on the outside while carrying trauma, anxiety, or substance use patterns that have been running your life for years. For many women, the struggle is not only what happened, but how it still shows up in the body, relationships, and daily choices. Shame, overgiving, emotional shutdown, and self-blame can start to feel normal. I work with adults who are tired of surviving this way and want to understand what is driving it. I focus on helping clients slow the cycle down and start relating to themselves differently.

You can’t control the challenges you face in life, but you can be empowered by how you perceive and respond to them. Difficulties, trials, struggles, pain, and grief are unavoidable, even when you believe you’ve made the “right” choices. Life can be hard and unfair at times. Daily stressors such as work, school, career, family, responsibilities, life transitions, difficult relationships, and unmet expectations can weigh you down. However, we experience life shaped by our perception. When you develop the tools to manage your perception, you can better manage your experiences.

I decided to go into counseling when I was 12-years old after reading, “Man’s Search for Meaning,” by Viktor Frankl, because of the message of hope. I believe that most people are searching for meaning in their lives, and I would like to be the catalyst that creates the change by illuminating the light that shines from inside once a person finds their path. I believe that we are all diverse, with different thoughts, feelings, and emotions, and I will treat you with the respect, compassion, and dignity that you deserve.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.

Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

How much does therapy cost?

The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.

What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?

Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

Are therapy sessions confidential?

Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
