I have been working as a therapist in Southern California for eight years. I have worked with a variety of cultures, ethnicities, and socioeconomic statuses. Most of my experience has been working with the Hispanic/Latin American population. Previously I have worked with victims of violent crimes, childhood trauma, and stress caused by transitions in life. Therefore I have experience working with dyads such as parent-child and couples. Also, I have worked with adolescents and children.

When life becomes more challenging than we anticipate, finding support shouldn't feel like a dating task. That's why I'm here to join you in finding direction and hope. I help students/young adults wrestling with the anxiety that comes with life transitions. I support working professionals in managing stress and burnout. I provide a space for women to explore their worries and develop healthier relationships. As a multi-ethnic woman, I understand the tension of balancing one's identity and needs with their roles and responsibilities. I also value incorporating one's faith into exploring inner-conflicts and find self-compassion.

In my experience, therapy is most effective when we let down pretenses and be real people with each other. Call or email me and lets talk about what's going on and how I can help. I love helping people to face the things that are holding them back from a good life. I especially love the work I've done helping people save their marriages, lose weight and get healthy, work through old stuff, and get a handle on debilitating anxiety and crushing depression. Therapy really does work. Things can be different.

My focus in working alongside you is to help you understand who you are today and, more importantly, who you would like to become. I know how difficult it can be to connect and invite someone new into your life, but my goal is to provide you with a sanctuary from the pain and help you uncover the answers you have been searching for. Often, life can leave you feeling alone, afraid, or at a loss with how to move on. Maybe you feel like if people really knew you, you would be left out in the cold. Perhaps you’re being shamed for who you are and what you need already. While you might struggle to believe it right now, things can change.

As a Christian organization we believe counseling should address the whole person and be respectful of people’s faith. Individual’s beliefs are both an important part of their lives and a valuable resource when experiencing distress. Counseling should assist in developing those resources further. Often, people lack support systems that help deal with personal problems.

I’ve had training in various modalities but ultimately use an eclectic approach emphasizing cognitive behavior therapy. I operate from the position that our thoughts strongly influence our moods and actions. My clients will gain a more intuitive understanding of themselves, better process their situation and consider which course of action makes the most sense. With some flexibility, a healthier perspective, and the right support, clients find that they are much more resilient and that situations don’t have to be as detrimental.
