I am a licensed mental health professional dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that supports clients in creating meaningful and lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in respect for each person’s unique experiences and strengths.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I specialize in helping children and families navigate the challenges that come with trauma, anxiety, and life stressors. Trauma can significantly impact daily life, affecting relationships, emotional well-being, and the ability to cope with everyday challenges. The effects can show up in ways such as difficulty focusing, heightened stress responses, or struggles with self-esteem, often creating a barrier to leading a fulfilling life.

With over 7 years of experience, I work with children ages 5 and up, providing tailored support to help them process their experiences and develop healthier coping strategies. Additionally, I offer caregiver support, helping parents and guardians strengthen their parenting skills and foster effective communication and connection with their children. I believe that when families are supported, they can thrive together, and I am here to help guide families toward healing and growth.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing individual therapy with a focus on chronic illness (such as celiac, IBD, etc). I also specialize in supporting clients navigating endometriosis, PCOS, POTS, chronic fatigue, fertility challenges, and hormonal mood disorders. With research experience in PMDD and personal experience advocating for women’s health, I offer a validating, collaborative space for those facing chronic symptoms and medical dismissal. While I no longer practice couple's therapy, I’m passionate about helping my clients feel understood, empowered, and supported on their healing journey.

I’m a bilingual (Spanish/English) Latinx Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over seven years of clinical experience, including three years practicing under a limited permit and four years as an independently licensed clinician. I offer a safe, inclusive, and culturally responsive space for healing and growth.

I provide therapy for adolescents, adults, and older adults, supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and life transitions. Whether you’re processing past experiences or seeking to build healthier patterns in the present, my goal is to meet you where you are—with empathy, respect, and collaboration.

Are you feeling stuck? Ready to feel more open? Ready to take the next step towards stronger relationships, self love, laughing more, and finding your sense of purpose? You can accomplish all this and more in therapy. When in therapy, intentional space is created for you to reflect and feel supported by another person that is curious, empathetic, compassionate, and can offer support through life's challenges. My intent as a therapist is to become a mirror, reflecting your deepest desires, life purpose, and the patterns that keep you from living your fullest life.

I utilize trauma- informed evidence-based practices that help the therapy move quickly such as EMDR and CBT helping you identify core beliefs and resolve inflexible patterns of thoughts- feelings- and behaviors. I also utilize somatic, mindful, and intuitive approaches.

All it takes is making a quick email or phone call to get started in becoming your best self. Putting one foot forward is how we turn dreams into reality.

Mental healthcare has been a lifelong passion of mine, and I am committed to helping others. My therapeutic style builds on my compassionate, empathetic, and attentive nature. In the past, I have worked well with clients with anxiety, complex trauma, PTSD, narcissistic abuse, personality and/or mood disorders. I genuinely care about the people who entrust me within my therapy practice and consider being a therapist one of the greatest privileges of my life.

*Former clients are welcome to reach out if they want to resume therapy, even if I do not have scheduled openings on Headway.
