I have over 6 years of experience helping adults, relationships and families with mental health needs.
Do you find that anxiety, relationship conflict, or chronic stress are hard to overcome? Do you notice any patterns? Do the same arguments repeat? What do you notice as distance grows in your relationships? You may be managing neurodivergence, a chronic health condition, or the weight of complex family dynamics. You are curious about where these patterns come from and are ready to honestly examine your role in them. You are looking for a therapist who can understand your full context. I work with marginalized populations (i.e., LGBTQAI2S+ or Latine/a/o) and Monolingual Spanish-Speaking (Terapia Bilingue).

My ideal client is someone struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, or chronic pain who has not found sufficient relief from standard treatments. They are thoughtful, motivated, and seeking a medically grounded option rather than a quick fix. They want to understand their symptoms, feel safe during treatment, and work with a physician who takes their concerns seriously. Their goal is meaningful improvement—greater clarity, emotional stability, and the ability to re-engage with life—while remaining connected to therapy and ongoing care.

I work with adults experiencing trauma and PTSD, grief, anxiety, depression, disordered eating, substance use, and life transitions.
If you’ve been told to “just move on,” but your body and nervous system haven’t caught up, you’re not alone — and more importantly you’re not broken. Many of my clients are deeply self-aware, yet still struggle with chronic anxiety, hypervigilance, low self-trust, or difficulty feeling safe in relationships. Others come to therapy carrying unresolved childhood experiences, relational trauma, or major life transitions that continue to shape how they see themselves and the world.

I have over 10 years of experiences working with adults, teens, and families in crisis.
You’ve spent so much of your life taking care of everyone else that somewhere along the way, you lost connection with yourself. Now you’re standing in the middle of change—questioning relationships, identity, motherhood, career, or the life you built—and while part of you knows something has to shift, the anxiety, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion can feel overwhelming. Therapy is a space where you no longer have to perform, hold it all together, or keep surviving; together, we’ll help you understand your patterns, quiet the constant mental noise, and reconnect with the woman you’re becoming.

FAQ - About Adult Counseling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
