As a Black & Latinx woman and therapist, I cannot shy away from how systems affect our mental health.
Deciding to come to therapy can be an intimidating decision. It is the first step in a journey of vulnerability, discovery, and self love.

I strive to be authentic and provide a safe environment for clients that acknowledges the vulnerable space you are putting yourself in by initiating therapy. I support clients in cultivating their strengths and acknowledging how the daily ups and downs of life can affect the therapeutic process.

As a brown Latinx person I understand that not every space is safe - it is my priority to ensure that our therapeutic space is one of safety and growth.
Life can be difficult to traverse, especially when one feels alone, fearful or overwhelmed. Looking for a therapist is an important step in taking control of one’s life again - congratulations on coming this far! Next comes finding a therapist who connects well with us and can understand our struggle. It is my goal to be that person for you through empathetic, strengths-based care that centers you as a person rather than as a disorder or problem. I do this work alongside individuals and couples of various marginalized identities to help them feel better about their life. I am LGBTQIA2S+ affirming and also offer services in Spanish.

I have worked in the area of mental health for 12 years, focusing on mental health therapy and substance use disorders. Throughout my years as a counselor I have worked with clients that struggle with depression, anxiety, impulse control, anger management, substance abuse, communication issues, trauma, low self-esteem, and ADHD. Many of us think that these disorders are only affecting us, but these disorders also affect our loved ones, and it affects us in different areas of our lives like work, socially, school, and in relationships. We can work together to reduce these symptoms and make your daily life a better one.

If mental health were a soup, then mindfulness would be the water. A couple other key ingredients would be assertiveness and positivity. We all know that healthy boundaries are essential to mental health, but how can actually improve the healthiness of our boundaries? This is but one of many questions we’ll explore in the process of deepening the relationship we have with ourselves, which is, incidentally, by far the most important relationship we can ever really have. I understand the courage it takes to reach out for help and am committed to walking with you on your mental health journey. I await your call.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists
What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?
An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.
How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
