About
I’m a bilingual therapist committed to providing trauma-informed, culturally attuned care. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, relationship problems, and life transitions. As a Latina therapist, I’m passionate about supporting immigrants as well as first- and second-generation clients navigating cultural identity, intergenerational expectations, and the stigma that often surrounds mental health. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I use a personalized approach, drawing from CBT, person-centered, and culturally sensitive approaches to meet your unique needs. I show up with empathy, presence, and care—while also gently challenging you with questions that invite reflection, growth, and new perspectives.
