About My Clients

I’ve worked with individuals struggling with everyday stressors to more severe psychiatric diagnosis. Regardless, of what you’re looking for, I tailor each treatment uniquely for you.

My Background and Approach

We'll use evidence-based practices, such as TF-CBT, CBT, and DBT, along with a holistic and strengths-based approach to get you back to where you want to be.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a first generation Latina myself, I value diversity and how it plays a role in each persons mental health. I take a holistic approach and try to focus on supporting your goals and over-all well-being rather than focusing on a problem.
