People often come to me because they feel "stuck" in patterns they don't know how to get out of - cycles in relationships, feelings that won't go away, thoughts and behaviors that feel automatic and unhelpful. My style is one that’s exploratory and emotionally-focused; I work best with those who are naturally curious about their own minds and are looking to more deeply understand themselves. My therapeutic interests include relationship issues, creativity, depression, anxiety, racial/ethnic identity, perfectionism, chronic illness, religious and complex trauma. I have special interest and experience in working with Latino clients.

I've always been interested in how childhood, family, trauma, and social/cultural factors affect our relationship with ourselves and the world.

I believe true empowerment and healing come through human connection and relationships, and Intimacy (closeness) is a learned relational skill. I’m here to support you with that.
