I’m a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who provides therapy in both Spanish and English, from colloquial to professional levels. My work has included supporting individuals facing HIV/AIDS-related challenges, domestic violence, substance use, loneliness, suicidal thoughts, dual diagnosis, sexuality-related concerns, aging-related issues, and the broader impact these experiences can have on families and support systems. Across community, academic, and clinical settings in Mexico and the U.S., I’ve built a strong foundation in helping people navigate both personal suffering and societal distress.
Seeking help can be the first step to acquire greater understanding and insight into our lives and relationships.

I have over 30 years of clinical, counseling and administrative experience working with individuals and couples, addressing the unique issues related to their unique life experiences. I have extensive professional and personal experience with military families and veterans. I understand first-hand the struggles of grief and medical conditions that impact all aspects of life.

I work with teens, young adults, and families navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, substance use, identity exploration, family conflict, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely understood, supported, and accepted for who they are. Together, we build on strengths, develop practical coping skills, and explore the patterns that may be getting in the way of living a more fulfilling life.
I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can be honest, reflective, and fully themselves without fear of judgment. My goal is not only to help clients navigate current challenges but also to foster greater resilience, self-awareness, confidence, and connection.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in San Diego
Finding family therapists in San Diego starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, relationship strain, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare San Diego therapists, look for someone whose profile lists family therapy experience, relevant training, and an approach that fits the concerns you want to discuss.
San Diego has many therapy options across neighborhoods like North Park, Hillcrest, La Jolla, and Chula Vista, which can make the search easier to start and harder to narrow. Consider whether in-person sessions near home, school, or work fit your schedule, or whether virtual appointments make it easier for more family members to join. Session attendance may vary, including the full family, smaller groups, or individual family members. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each therapist structures family sessions, handles communication patterns, and supports fit before you book.
Family therapy in San Diego can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for family therapists who are accepting new patients, compare availability, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs after you enter your insurance details. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
