My mission is to empower others by helping them find their voice and supporting them on their journey to find freedom through therapy. I place great value on the uniqueness of each client I serve. I understand that each one is the true expert of their own story and circumstances. I’m originally from San Antonio. My cultural experience is rooted in being a BIPOC woman and being immersed in Hispanic cultural experiences and enmeshed in military traditions. I confidently navigate through cultural contexts with the LGBTQ community, military families, various religious affiliations, and other marginalized minority groups.

You may feel like you have to be the rock for everyone else, and that you can't let anyone down. But it's okay to ask for help. You're not weak for asking for help. In fact, it takes strength to admit that you need help. If you're feeling overwhelmed, or if you're struggling to cope with the challenges of being LGBTQIA+, therapy can help.

Men, I know counseling is the last thing you thought you’d be considering, but you know something has to change. You've always been known to have the answers to your problems. One way or another you find a way to get it done. That’s what your family and friends have always looked up to you for! Ambitious, brave, and hard working are words that best describe you. You’ve taken pride in achieving your life goals on your own, but lately it’s hard to ignore how difficult everything is. You carry on avoiding thinking that you can get through this alone, but your family is feeling the distance and they know things aren’t right.

As a Gay Man, it can be difficult to accept oneself due to internal shame and living in a heteronormative society. We learned at a young age how to protect ourselves from stigma and discrimination by numbing pain, overcompensating, misusing substances, and in some cases living a dual life. These strategies once protected us, but now negatively influence our emotions, thoughts, relationships, and view of the world. I help Gay Men who are struggling with their sexual orientation, living in or out of the closet, living with HIV, afraid to disclose their status, in relationship conflict, and more.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists

What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?

An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.

Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?

A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.

How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?

Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.

How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?

Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?

The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
