About My Clients

Ever felt like you’re carrying stories that didn’t start with you — expectations or sacrifices passed down through generations — yet somehow you’re the one trying to make sense of it all? Balancing culture, family, and your own emotional wellbeing can feel heavy, especially when you’re doing it quietly. In our work together, you won’t have to minimize any part of who you are. This is a space where your experiences are deeply respected and where self-understanding and empowerment can root.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I'm licensed in both Texas and Arkansas. My approach to therapy is collaborative and shaped around you. I work to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to make meaningful shifts. As a bilingual, first-generation Latinx counselor, I value cultural humility and want people from all backgrounds to feel welcomed and understood. I draw from CBT, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and Internal Family Systems, and I also love incorporating creative approaches like art-based and somatic techniques when they fit your needs. I’m always learning and exploring new modalities so I can bring helpful, flexible tools into our work together. Above all, my hope is to walk alongside you with care, authenticity, and respect as you heal and grow.
