Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Tucson, AZ

With a passion for psychology at an early age, I obtained a degree in Psychology prior to pursuing a career in Nursing. It is my honor to help patients achieve the life they envision.

I am a multicultural bilingual psychotherapist, and your well-being is my ultimate concern. I have always wanted to help others and provide them with the tools needed to overcome life stressor. I have been working in this industry since 2000 but have had my own practice since 2021. I attended Arizona State University for both my bachelors and masters. I provide EMDR and Hypnotherapy, along with other modalities CBT, DBT and mindfulness.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in emergency nursing, where I developed strong skills in crisis support, trauma-informed care, and compassionate communication. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Louisville and my Master of Science in Nursing from the University of South Alabama in 2025. My training includes inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, providing care across the lifespan. I have a special interest in working with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and trauma-related concerns. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered.

Down to earth and very open minded. I believe in complete transparency and accountability.

Open-minded, and always willing to learn from my clients. I am passionate and warm.

If you tend to overthink, second-guess yourself, or feel emotionally drained by stress or relationships, you're not alone. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Together, we'll slow things down, make sense of the patterns keeping you stuck, and build practical tools to help you feel more confident in yourself and your relationships.

I also enjoy working with couples who feel caught in cycles of conflict or disconnection and want to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over six years of experience providing therapy and more than a decade of experience in social services. I've worked in both community mental health and outpatient settings, and my approach blends insight, curiosity, and collaboration with practical strategies you can use in everyday life. I believe therapy should help you better understand yourself while creating meaningful, lasting change.

I am ready to listen and to help you in any way I can. I have helped many people reduce anxiety and depression and I would like to help you as well. I have worked with college students, new moms, men, people dealing with work/life balance, grief and loss and older adults who are going through various issues such as struggles with their adult children and health issues. Let's turn some of those tears into laughter. Let's talk.
