I am the best fit for those with a history of interpersonal trauma, relationship or family challenges, adjustment issues, and/or anxiety. Many individuals that I see are feelings stuck in a relationship--with themselves, a parent, a sibling, a partner, a colleague, or a friend. I support clients to gain more awareness around the ways that their histories, thoughts, and feelings inform their relationship patterns and then support them with tools to adjust those patterns were needed. I also believe that healing happens through reparative relationships--between therapist and client, with our loved ones, and with ourselves. As such, I seek to relate to my clients in a transparent, deeply human, and sometimes humorous way. In this way, I hope to act as a template to empower them to practice relating to others and themselves differently so that their needs can be honored and met.

My work is primarily catered toward issues such as acute stress, interpersonal difficulties, and challenges involving mood and anxiety. While I welcome individuals of all backgrounds, I am particularly invested in working with clients with marginalized identities, acting as a welcoming ally to queer and trans identified individuals and people of color. As a therapist, I have close to a decade of experience working with a range of at-risk populations in a number of professional settings. Many of my clients arrive feeling like they move from one stressor to the next. Getting out of bed is difficult, creativity and passion fade, and scrolling on a screen replaces human contact. My practice aims at helping individuals uncover, clarify, and address substantial barriers which block pleasure and satisfaction. The work I do involves a deep exploration of historical, interpersonal, and emotional factors in conjunction with the development of practical skills aimed at fostering wellness.

I work best with individuals who may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of themselves as they juggle school, relationships, and big life decisions. You might be dealing with stress, burnout, low mood, or feeling stuck in patterns that are hard to change. Some students I work with are figuring out identity, boundaries, or how to manage emotions in a healthier way. In our work, you don’t have to have everything figured out. Therapy is a space to be real, talk things through, and feel supported without judgment. Together, we’ll make sense of what’s going on and find practical, meaningful ways to help you feel more steady, confident, and in control.
Counseling starts with building connections with therapists who recognize the significance of language and culture. As a therapist, I rely on my knowledge of the Latina/o community to communicate with clients about mental health stigma, develop trust, and discuss resources available. I can provide therapy in English and Spanish for those who wish to conduct sessions fully in Spanish. In my therapy work, I take a nonjudgmental approach and allow you to be you. I specialize in helping clients navigate grief and loss, anxiety, depression, perinatal mental health, trauma, and major life transitions. I’ve worked with children, teens, adults, and older adults, and I adapt my approach to meet you where you are. Whether you’re holding deep sadness, feeling stuck in stress, or looking for new ways to cope, I’ll help you identify what’s working, build new tools, and move forward with more self-trust.
We integrate traditional and alternative healing methods to support your overall well-being.

We often put ourselves on the back burner while taking care of everything and everyone else. I look forward to helping you prioritize, set boundaries, and find happiness for you.

“What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” -Mary Oliver I've been thinking about this every day since the first time I read it (or rather the first time it smacked me in the face, oh, so many years ago). It's some question, isn't it? Sometimes it inspires me. Sometimes it frightens me. Since it always challenges me, I've rooted my practice philosophy in it. It's kind of like the adult version of 'what do you want to be when you grow up'? How in the world do we answer that? If the question moves you like it does me then we're probably a good fit. Let's talk about the complexities of making life choices and finding fulfillment.
