Welcome! In life, we all encounter challenges and stress. I am here to help you, and I will create a warm and collaborative therapeutic environment to work together on your goals.
My approach
I offer a non-pathologizing and empowering understanding of human issues to make the changes you wish to manifest in life. I borrow from many sources that collectively make up my style, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Humanistic, Mindfulness-Based, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused, Strength-Based, Trauma-Focused, and Dialectical (DBT) approaches.
My focus
I specialize in working with individuals on mood challenges (depression, anxiety, fears, anger), post-traumatic stress/abuse, substance use dependence, defining life goals, and social issues. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish and can relate to ethnic and racial discrimination.
My communication style
Please know that I will guard your privacy, and our session will be a safe place to land your truths. Protejere su privacidad y rasguardare sus secretos.
My journey to mental healthcare
From August 2013 through August 2016, I completed my supervised clinical hours for licensure with Santa Cruz County.
My goals for you
I feel honored to be chosen for this intimate work. My goal is to create a warm, supportive therapeutic environment where we can work together to help you improve your life and make the changes you wish to see.
My first session with you
In our first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy and begin to establish our therapeutic relationship. I will strive to understand your unique challenges and goals so we can collaboratively develop a plan to help you move forward. Sera un honor poder ayudarle y para mi es una gran responsibilidad el tener su confianza.
