My communication style

I believe in connecting with clients to provide therapeutic interventions. I provide a sense of calm, comforting, non-judgmental as well as supportive presence. My communication styles in therapy are active listening, using open and closed-ended questions, clarifying, and exploring.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am a Mexican American woman who grew up in the Central Valley. I have personally seen the discrimination against vulnerable populations. While growing up, I wanted to see change in this. In order for me to see change, I knew I wanted to be part of the change. Being part of the client's journey has been a blessing.

My goals for you

Setting goals in therapy is important and an effective way to increase self-esteem, motivation and help create the change you want. I will provide and demonstrate techniques, skill building, and coping skills to start with goal setting. Goal setting is a collaborative approach between the client and therapist.

Our first session

The first session will include greeting and introductions. It may include small talk to build a relationship. I want you to be comfortable and feel supported in making the first step to therapy. I will give you the opportunity to tell your story, the reason you are seeking therapy, and your expectations of therapy.
