As a Bilingual Educator and Surf Guide I have experience helping kids/adults ride the waves of life. I specialize in fusing Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Art and Motivational Interviewing on those therapy journeys. During my 25 years as an educator and school counselor, I have empowered youth with creative approaches that enable them to live their lives boldly.
With a heart rooted in love and experience, I support those facing anxiety, neurodiversity, sexual identity, ADHD, impulse control disorders and broader academic barriers. Guided by real-life stories of resilience, I empower individuals navigating pain and hopelessness amidst the complexities of life.
I believe that my clients are the experts of their own stories and that they have many strengths that will assist them in overcoming their challenges. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to be of support in that process.
