As a first generation bilingual Guatemalan immigrant, I am committed to providing therapeutic services to varying diverse communities. It can be difficult to find professionals with whom you can feel safe with. I am culturally aware and embrace all our differences. My relational approach helps me look at people as small parts of a bigger whole. I believe and trust in that "gut feeling", the voice within we sometimes ignore. I want to work alongside you to focus on the emotional healing, and start the process of restoring hope and confidence. I help people address anxiety, cultural issues, loss, and other life transitions.

I see the therapeutic relationship as the most valuable tool for your growth. Working together we will identify what you need to live a purposeful life and have the relationships you seek.

My clinical experience includes working with adults who are managing complex, intense emotions, behaviors that are challenging and/or struggling with toxic relationships.

I love therapy with older women! As an older woman, one has had so many life experiences: in going through life’s journey, one has had a myriad of challenges: home and family, work outside and inside the home. Struggling with health issues: including pain, frustration, and adjustments. There are births, deaths, and anniversary dates that one may be reckoning with. Sometimes, it can be overwhelming. I would love to hear your personal story! And to give you an opportunity to share your life’s challenges and find hope in your therapy with myself. You can reach a higher point in self care, self esteem and hold your head up high!
