Reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you are used to carrying things on your own. You may not always have the right words for what you are feeling, and sometimes even knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming. My hope is to offer a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and know that you do not have to figure everything out alone.

I am a bilingual English/Spanish LPC Associate and National Certified Counselor, and being able to offer therapy in both languages is deeply important to me. For many people, language is tied to family, culture, identity, and the way emotions are experienced and expressed. Sometimes there are things that simply feel different when spoken in the language closest to your heart. I want clients to know they are welcome to communicate in the way that feels most natural, comfortable, and authentic to them.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, low self-worth, emotional overwhelm, or simply a sense of feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. My approach is gentle, collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in genuine human connection. I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can be honest without fear of judgment and where your experiences are met with curiosity, compassion, and respect.

My counseling style is primarily person-centered and existential-humanistic, while also incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, strengths-based approaches, psychoeducation, and developmentally appropriate play-based interventions. I am also continuing my training in EMDR and Gottman Method Couples Therapy Levels 1 and 2.

More than anything, I want therapy to feel safe and meaningful. You do not need to arrive with everything organized or know exactly what you want to say. We can begin wherever you are. Whether you are trying to heal from something painful, understand patterns that keep repeating, navigate a difficult season, reconnect with yourself, or simply find a little more hope, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
