Therapist

I have over 7 years of experience working with depression and anxiety disorders, trauma, couples, and other severe mental health concerns. My goal is to create a comfortable, safe space where you can begin your therapeutic journey with confidence and without judgment. Together, we can openly explore what you want in—and out of—life. If you don't know what that looks like yet, that's okay. We can figure it out together. Your goals may also change along the way, and therapy should have the flexibility to change with you.

Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I offer therapy for adults and teens who are looking for support with life’s challenges—whether it’s stress, transitions, relationships, or just feeling stuck. I’m bilingual in Spanish and have a deep, personal understanding of the Latinx experience, which helps me connect with clients in a meaningful and culturally sensitive way.

I’m trained in EMDR, trauma-informed care, DBT, CBT, and more, and have worked in the mental health field for over 10 years. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family—including my toddler and teenager—going on walks, doing yoga, and enjoying a good matcha.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re already carrying a heavy load. One thing for sure, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

In my practice, I work extensively with college students, athletes, young adults and adults across various stages of life. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, life transitions, performance pressure, injury recovery, burnout, and complex questions around identity and self-worth.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, my core mission is to support you through life's most challenging moments so you can step fully into the best version of yourself. Therapy isn't just about managing symptoms, it’s about discovering your strengths, building resilience, and creating a life that feels authentic and aligned with who you are.
