About My Clients

Working with me as your therapist, you will find that I do my best to be open-minded, empowering, and supportive. You are the expert; that being said, be open to being challenged, as I will be direct when it is necessary to meet your goals. I use a range of different modalities to meet your needs, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic therapy, family systems therapy, attachment therapy, narrative therapy, a person-centered approach, and positive psychology.

My Background and Approach

Born and raised in New Mexico, I have experienced growing up in a traditional Hispanic household and now, throughout my adulthood, learned to break through unhealthy norms and how to help others broaden their horizon. I have an extensive background working with at-risk youth, families, and those who have experienced chronic trauma. I graduated with my BSW in 2020 and my MSW (Master of Social Work) in 2021 from New Mexico Highlands University. After getting my degrees, I worked with the NM Children, Youth, and Families Department. In my personal time, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, art, and playing with our three dogs. My work and personal experiences, I feel, have served me in being a better mental health provider and being able to understand/accept others, wholly, and with openness to who they are.
