Stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction have a way of taking over our lives, leaving no room to experience joy. I'm here to help. Change is often scary and hard, but in a safe, therapeutic partnership, it becomes possible. By creating an empathetic and supportive environment, we're able to refocus your energy so you can rediscover yourself, achieve lasting relief, and ultimately embrace more opportunities to experience joy and fulfillment. I believe we can benefit from all our circumstances, both the positive and negative, viewing them as opportunities to learn and evolve. I encourage growth in my clients by helping to increase their awareness of how behaviors and thought patterns affect their identity, relationships, and overall sense of well being. I view the therapeutic process as one of compassionate collaboration in which clients gain new insights, build inner strength, and create desired life changes. Together we work to identify which aspects are beyond our control, finding acceptance and ownership as needed, and ultimately the empowerment and freedom to embrace change.

I believe you are the expert in your life. I believe the decision to seek therapy can be beautiful, and complicated because such is life. Healing isn’t linear and is a journey that can be filled with a variety of feelings and emotions–expansion, discomfort, learning, relearning, and unlearning. My goal is to co-create a space and container that will allow you to explore, discover, and tap into parts of yourself unknown to you. I am committed to using a healing-centered, trauma-informed lens and feel your journey of holistic transformation is unique and valuable. I will foster an empathic and comforting environment that focuses on you, your needs, and your goals. My therapeutic perspective is rooted in Humanistic theory and I work utilizing Womanist, relational, and somatic perspectives, as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and attachment-based approaches. I anchor my work in social justice values. I enjoy working with all types of people, including teenagers, young adults, and adults. My primary focus areas include: trauma, PTSD and complex PTSD, grief, racial identity exploration and processing, queer identity exploration and processing, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the rediscovery of self.

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, or stressed, or just not like yourself? Are you feeling frustrated in your relationships? Sometimes messages or experiences from the past, faulty beliefs, or challenging relationships keep us stuck and out of touch with our well- being. Couples are helped when each has an opportunity to feel heard, and when early attachment styles and emotions underlying the problem can be better understood. Connecting with the right therapist can help to identify these obstacles, to explore new ways to see things, and to support positive change and growth. I know that a few useful strategies can begin to make a difference.

Hello and welcome! I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) psychotherapist that is dedicated to creating an inclusive, authentic, and safe therapeutic experience. Therapy with me focuses on collaborating with individuals and couples seeking to explore their current and past experiences, personal identity, and gain insight into what may no longer be serving them in order to cultivate growth and healing. In addition to working with individuals, I am passionate about collaborating with couples of all kinds to navigate the challenges of communication, stressors, intimacy, and differing experiences that show up in relationships. As a therapist of color, I view the role of race, ethnicity, and culture as integral piece in understanding one's journey. Stress and anxiety connected to oppression are often overlooked and I aim to consensually bring those issues into the room. I emphasize humanistic, person-centered, psychodynamic, narrative therapy, parts work, existential, family systems and mindfulness modalities. I also recognize that every couple and individual is unique and I will cater to and be curious about your needs and goals. Let's get started!

Therapy is a safe space to explore changes you'd like to make in yourself and in your relationships. Depression, anxiety and anger are normal parts of the human experience and we all suffer to some degree, but when our usual coping skills fail us and we can't shake these feelings it's time to get support. Change is difficult, even when we want it. Getting guidance, support and accountability can help you to create lasting change. Often we're quick to judge our own weaknesses but we fail to see our own strengths. I enjoy collaborating with clients and finding the path to improvement that works best for them based on their unique personalities and backgrounds. Work can be brief if you're looking to overcome a specific obstacle or longer term if your goals call for continued growth. It's hard to reach out and ask for help so I respond promptly to new client inquiries. My clients find me authentic and easy to talk to and they appreciate my humor as well as my empathy and insight. My goal is to create a safe place to explore new ways of thinking and understanding yourself and to help you set and achieve goals that will improve your life.

For a long time I have desired to bring wellness to our people with simple access. As the concept of mental health is finally gaining the audience it deserves I realize there is a missing piece. You don't have to be "not well" or "not functioning" to have a therapist or coach to help you through challenging times or humps. My goal is always to support you in reaching your own optimal functioning. What is to be acknowledged is that this means something different for each of us individually. Let's not be compared to the masses yet rather to our own self. I strive to create an environment where you can BE...WELL...STRONG...LOVED...YOU! I practice from an “integrative” perspective, meaning I utilize and interweave several different therapeutic modalities into the work depending on the needs and personalities of the client. This model is all about collaboration and comes from a strength-based and evidenced-based model approach. I view therapy as an environment that is warm, inviting, and non-judgmental. In this space you will always be encouraged & Empowered to reflect on and understand yourself, bring awareness to your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and work through any challenges that are holding you back so that you can be free to BE! Are you ready to be FREE? Reach out now!
