ACCEPTing NEW Clients! Open slots Saturday 10 a.m., 11 a.m., and 12 p.m. in person. Are you seeking support to navigate a challenging relationship, feel better about yourself, or manage work-related stress? Life can be complex, demanding, and unpredictable. Relationships can feel conflicting and overwhelming. There's a way to live in harmony with your true self, find relief and answers, gain a sense of order, and heal. That's what I can help you access.
By providing the conditions for a safe, confidential space, I can help cope with life challenges. I listen attentively, with curiosity and openness to clients who suffer from anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and trauma. In this space, you can explore who you are, increase confidence, release burdens, and find new ways to relate to yourself, others, and life.
I have extensive experience working with bicultural clients. I am fully bilingual, speaking English and Spanish. Feel free to call to book a free, 15-minute consultation, or book an appointment now.

The therapy I provide is custom to your needs. We modulate when to start, adjust, or shift conversations at your pace. We may explore the issues that are coming up for you in the present, understand where they come from, allow self-expression, release emotions, and work on setting and achieving goals. I draw tools and theories from different therapy approaches such as CBT, DBT ACT, and IFS.
