Accepting clients! Have you been stressed, sad, or hopeless about patterns in your most important relationships? It makes sense if you are struggling; God made us to be close to loved ones, not disconnected! I work with parents, teens, and adults that are having challenges because of issues in their marriage, family, school, work, or friendships. I encourage clients to work out relational patterns or cycles and gain more support where you need it- your natural environments. My goal is that we can co-discover more healthy relational dynamics so you need to talk with a therapist less and can lean on your natural supports more!

At times in our lives, sex and intimacy may not be a top priority. You might have a hard time expressing your desires, or knowing what those desires are in the first place! Does that resonate with you? If you’re in a relationship rut or you’ve simply never learned that sex is for YOUR pleasure, you might be feeling disconnected from your body. The root of these challenges is that sex is a skill, and society doesn’t teach us to hone in on our sexy, sensual side for our own benefit. When we struggle with sex or intimacy, we tend to go on struggling until it becomes overwhelming and we can’t avoid it any longer. Now, it’s time to grow.

You look like you're holding it together on the outside—but inside, you're tired of the anxiety and emotional overwhelm. Your thoughts are racing, making it hard to sleep, and you're sluggish and unmotivated as a result. I work with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can’t explain, often rooted in painful early life experiences or relationships. My clients are high-functioning and insightful—but still feel hijacked by anger, perfectionism, or self-doubt. If your inner critic is loud, or you feel like you’re always bracing for something to go wrong, therapy can help quiet the noise.

I truly love working with children, adolescents, and adults who are trying to make sense of themselves and their world. My ideal clients are often children and adults who feel overwhelmed, whether that’s anxiety, big emotions, behavior challenges, attention difficulties, or just feeling misunderstood. Many of them come in because something isn’t working at home, at school, or in relationships, and they are looking for support, clarity, and relief. At the heart of it, I'm here to help people feel more like themselves again and to remind them that they’re not alone in the journey.

Therapy isn't about becoming someone new, it's about coming home to the person you've always been. No matter how long you’ve struggled with anxiety, low self-worth, relationship challenges or painful life experiences, I don’t believe you are “broken.” Many of the ways we cope were developed to help us survive at one point in our lives. Together, we'll work to understand the patterns that have kept you in survival mode, nurture the self that learned to survive, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that have always deserved to be seen, heard, and cared for.

Life can be full of challenges and it can be a greater battle to ask for help. At times we may not know how to ask for help and that is okay. Sometimes the only thing we may need is someone to talk to or to find some guidance. One of the most common goals that most people have is to feel okay and what that may look like for you. As a therapist I am here to help you on that journey of achieving your goals.

FAQ - Hispanic and Latino Counseling
What can a Hispanic and Latino therapist help with?
A Hispanic or Latino therapist can support clients with a variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and major life transitions. What may set a therapist who personally identifies as Hispanic or Latino apart, however, is their ability to integrate cultural context into your care. If you identify with a specific cultural background, such as Mexican, Puerto Rican, Brazilian, or Colombian, working with a therapist who shares your identity can make a meaningful difference in therapy since you may feel that you have to explain yourself less, or that certain cultural values around family, respect, religion, and emotional expression are more understood by them.

What role can language play in therapy?
Language plays a central role in how people process and express emotions. Even for individuals who are fluent in English, certain feelings, memories, or experiences may be easier to describe in Spanish or in the language they grew up speaking. For many Hispanic and Latino clients, language is also closely tied to identity and family relationships. Being able to move between English and Spanish in therapy can help reflect real-life dynamics, such as communicating with family members in one language and navigating work or school in another. Read more about the advantages of choosing a bilingual counselor here.

How can a Hispanic and Latino therapist support family therapy?
Family is central in many Hispanic and Latino cultures, and a therapist with cultural familiarity may be better equipped to navigate family dynamics without oversimplifying them. Culturally responsive therapists may be able to more accurately interpret family roles and dynamics, thus allowing them to distinguish between cultural norms and clinically concerning dynamics. In addition, Hispanic and Latino therapists who speak Spanish may be a particularly good fit for bilingual or multilingual families, as a therapist that can facilitate clearly across languages will help ensure that all family members feel heard and understood.

How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
The best way to inquire about a therapist’s specific experience with Hispanic and Latino clients is to ask them targeted questions during an initial phone call or consultation. Consider asking questions such as: What experience do you have working with Hispanic or Latino clients? How do you incorporate cultural background into your approach to therapy? Do you offer therapy in Spanish or another language? You may also ask about specific examples of when they’ve navigated working with Hispanic and Latino clients.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The Psychology Today directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity on their profile. 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 experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
