I believe that building a respectful, trusting relationship with my clients is critical to a successful therapeutic process. I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated to change and grow in their personal life. I have worked with individuals with neurological differences such as autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, mood and anxiety disorders. Most recently I worked with young adults to support the transition into adulthood including issues with school, relationships, stress, anxiety, depression, social skills, communication and self-esteem. I provide a safe, comfortable place for my clients to be vulnerable and transparent.

Every morning you wake up panicked, stomach in knots, thinking about all the things you were supposed to finish yesterday but didn’t. And today’s to-do list makes you wonder if you’ll ever dig yourself out of this hole. You feel like you’re letting everyone down, especially yourself. “How,” you wonder, “can other people get things done with such ease and it be so difficult for me?” Even projects that excite you are hard to start and nearly impossible to finish. The shame hurts. Life would be much easier if you could just focus, but you don’t know how. You constantly beat yourself up. It's getting old.

When you consider this is the time for an important change in your life such as smoking cessation, weight control, increased happiness, optimism, liberation from oppression, self esteem/self validation, traumas, phobias, and other issues that have become barriers to your self control and happiness, I am trained and experienced with many tools to help.
I am an English/Spanish counselor whose main goal is to help my clients find hope, resilience and solutions to their problems. My academic and life experiences have shown me that most challenges and frustrations have solutions. I help my clients understand that the solution is within him/her during those moments when they feel they're unable to endure life's challenges and problems. We uncover the "where, when, and how" and then we find the "why" (reasons) underlying the feelings of doom and frustration. This allows us to discover and implement workable solutions.

Deep down, most people want and need to be heard and understood. Not feeling seen and accepted can contribute to problems like depression, anxiety, and self-judgment. Therapy is a place to start the journey of better knowing and loving yourself. At its best it’s an opportunity for you to feel safe to explore your deepest challenges and your sources of strength. My role is to create a welcoming space for you to share your thoughts, feelings, and ideas as you heal and create a happier life full of more joy and meaning. I’ll offer guidance and support as I witness your journey.

Life is full of moments that test our resilience, and often, it’s the way we respond to these moments that truly defines us. I have witnessed firsthand how life can impact us both negatively and positively, shaping our emotional, mental, and physical well-being in ways we never expected. But more than the struggles we face, it’s the process of overcoming them and discovering our inner strength that truly matters. The key to thriving through it all is not avoiding pain, but learning how to navigate it, grow from it, and use it as a stepping stone for transformation.

Adulthood comes with many pressures and expectations all while adding the difficulty of navigating cultural stressors and first-generational hardships. Sometimes we feel like we must have our lives figured out whether it is looking for a job, deciding what career to pursue, complex relationships, self-doubt, or uncertainty. These pressures and expectations for our lives can be overwhelming and sometimes we would like to talk about these feelings with someone. Lack of motivation, procrastination, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and stress can prevent us from becoming the person who we aspire to be.
