About My Clients

I specialize in assisting adults, ages 16-35 struggling with trauma, relationship issues, and shame. I can help you manage relational triggers and cope with stress in a healthier way. Most of my clients experience significantly alleviated symptoms within the first month and gradual improvements thereafter.

My Background and Approach

I use a supportive, encouraging and empathetic person-centered approach. I also use instinctual trauma response (ITR), cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)-based therapies to help individuals manage anxiety, depression and traumatic experiences.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am deeply committed to supporting underserved communities, with a special focus on the Latino population. I recognize that cultural values, family dynamics, and lived experiences shape how we understand and cope with mental health. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, respected, and understood—without needing to explain or translate your identity. As a bilingual therapist, who lived in a Spanish speaking country, I value diversity and bring warmth and cultural understanding to every session. Everyone deserves access to compassionate, culturally responsive care—and I am here to walk alongside you in that process.
