As a counselor, I believe everyone deserves a safe space to have their stories heard and feelings validated. Counseling can provide the necessary tools and guidance to help you grow, adapt, and evolve as an individual no matter what the circumstance. My technique as a counselor involves creating and enhancing coping skills, reframing harmful thought processes, and exploring much more with clients. Most importantly, I believe that catering my counseling skills specifically to my client's needs and goals are crucial in building a trusting therapeutic relationship.
I have experience working one-on-one with children and teens between the ages of 6 and 18. I also have experience working with adults who deal with anxiety, stress, and relationship issues. Lastly, I enjoy facilitating psychoeducational groups on topics such as forming healthy relationships, effective communication, and emotion regulation.
I was born and raised in Laredo, TX. I identify as Mexican American and also provide counseling services in Spanish. I have now been living in San Antonio for four years and truly appreciate the cultural diversity of the city.

I often work with the Latinx community here in San Antonio, TX, so I see a lot of symptoms of anxiety, work-related stress, depression, and PTSD. We typically discuss the main concern and develop some goals for counseling in our first session. After the first session, my client and I go at the pace they are most comfortable with.

I am very person-centered, so I will cater my counseling techniques to what best fits my clients. I typically utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for identifying and processing thoughts and emotions and am often Trauma-Focused due to the population I work with most.
