About My Clients

My experience is working with individuals who experienced interpersonal violence, victims of crime, survivors of sexual assault, individuals suffering from the effects of family traumas. I work from a holistic, intersectional feminist perspective, and strengths and resilient based approached. I've worked with teens and adults, and currently work with adult women.

My Background and Approach

I'm a Xicana feminist with the compassion to listen and advocate for clients. I have extensive experience working with immigrant women who have experienced violence in their country of origin or their journey to the US, or in the US. I have utilized an intersectional feminist perspective with every client and family as a way to gain an understanding to the complex traumas and how larger systems can oppress individuals, families, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ community.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My belief as a therapist is to provide support, compassion and guidance to all clients regardless of background and lived experience. Every client has their unique experience in life and have the right to self determination when it comes to healing and growing. I will work diligently in dismantling the oppressive systems that continue to support the cycles of violence on communities.
