Hispanic and Latino Therapists in South Carolina

Imagine feeling capable even in times of stress, knowing you are enough. You show up for people day in and day out. But now is the time to learn how to care for yourself with long-term results. I love working with adolescents and adults to better manage their lives, emotions, and levels of distress which result from depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, past trauma, relational discord and significant life challenges/transitions. Coming from a Latino background, I understand that mental health is not customarily acknowledged, and my goal is to create a safe space to learn about generational maladaptive influences and heal from them.

I truly believe a therapeutic relationship is the baseline for a successful treatment. My focus is on helping kids, adolescents, adults, and families to overcome life challenges. I see the person as a whole and I can help you heal in a compassionate, non-judgmental and safe environment. I think you are unique with unique qualities and strengths, and I focus my treatment in making you aware of those strengths to become successful in life. I have experience with Hispanic and Latino population.

Maybe you’re having thoughts, feelings, or sensations of fear, panic, or dread. Maybe you’re struggling to cope with it all, and are questioning your use of substances. Maybe you aren’t sure if you even “need” therapy.

If any of this is true for you, you've come to the right place.

Now Taking New Clients! How are you doing today? I know at times things can be hard, but I am here for you. Let me help you deal with life's struggles and issues, and work on healing, growing, or in reaching your full potential. Therapy is not a one-dimensional place where you go to only talk about your feelings, but a place where you can holistically work on yourself. Therapy should be a safe place for people to understand themselves, unburden, heal, and morph themselves- all on their own terms. No matter what diagnosis or problem I guarantee I will go on this journey with you.

Things were going great. You got the job, you’re in a relationship, you have great friends but then, suddenly, life didn’t feel fulfilling anymore. Your anxiety started sneaking up again, your trauma started resurfacing, and your self-esteem got lower than ever before. You’ve tried all the things to help yourself get out of this funk, but nothing seems to work. And you question if this your new reality.

Do you ever feel like life is a roller coaster that you cannot get off. There are times in life when worries, insecurities, anger seem to overwhelm. I believe that everyone can develop the skills to help them through those challenging times. Using a combination of Solution Focus approach, Mindfulness and CBT I create plan that best fits the needs and lifestyle of the individual. So often in life we focus on the problems rather than the solutions. We get trapped living in the what if’s of life. I help clients reframe their perspective to look forward with hope, rather than staying stuck in the past.

My goal is to help empower my clients and give them the tools they need to be able to confront any challenges they are facing. The most important thing here is the therapeutic relationship, so I encourage my clients to be open throughout this process to make sure their needs are being met.
