I am a Latina bilingual therapist with 15 years of professional mental health experience. I specialize in working with people suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, difficulties with acculturation, work stress and domestic violence. I work with children/adolescents, parents, couples and individuals. I Graduated from Pacific Oaks College with a Masters Degree in Marriage Family Therapy with specialization in Latino/a Family Studies. I am passionate about working with families.
Growing up in California, Colorado and Tennessee concocted a Midwestern warmth with an open-mindedness and appreciation of our differences. These experiences gave me a curiosity for how humans develop in their environments and with their unique histories, leading me to pursue psychology.
I studied Political Science at Vanderbilt University before a seven year tenure in the corporate world. I am grateful for this experience as it has added depth and perspective to my work with clients. In 2014 I began my counseling psychology degree at The Wright Institute in Berkeley and then completed my training in San Francisco. My training journey encompassed internships at community mental health clinics, elementary and high schools, group therapy practices, and social service sites where I received intensive supervision in a variety of modalities. I regularly attend trainings and consult with colleagues to hone my craft and provide the best possible care.
