Therapist

The majority of my professional experience comes from working with justice-impacted individuals, which has given me a deeper understanding of the complex challenges, life experiences, and barriers that can shape a person’s mental health and well-being. Through this work, I have developed a strong commitment to providing compassionate, nonjudgmental care and creating a space where clients feel respected, understood, and supported.

I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix and am currently pursuing my Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Counselor Education and Supervision at Walden University. My continued education reflects my commitment to ongoing growth and providing thoughtful, informed care to the individuals I serve.

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


Welcome! I support adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief and loss, stress, and significant life transitions. Whether you’re going through a difficult season, feeling overwhelmed by emotions, struggling in your relationships, or adjusting to an unexpected change, my goal is to help you feel supported while we work together to better understand what you’re experiencing.


My professional background includes working with individuals and families across a variety of settings, including corrections and community-based mental health services. These experiences have allowed me to work with people from many different backgrounds and life circumstances and have shaped my understanding of the unique challenges each person can face.


I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself. Together, we can build on your strengths, develop helpful tools for managing life’s challenges, and work toward greater balance, confidence, and well-being.

Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.
