I am a therapist with eight years of experience working in Southern California. I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of cultures, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds, with a particular focus on serving the Hispanic/Latin American community.
My approach
My therapeutic approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family Systems, and Solution Focused modalities. I tailor my approach to each individual's unique needs and challenges, working collaboratively to identify and work towards your goals.
My focus
I specialize in supporting individuals navigating a variety of challenges, including anger management, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, family conflict, life transitions, parenting, relationship issues, self-esteem, and stress. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
My communication style
My communication style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make positive changes in your life. I am fluent in both English and Spanish, allowing me to provide therapy in your preferred language.
My journey to mental healthcare
I was drawn to the field of mental healthcare through my passion for helping others and my belief in the transformative power of therapy. My journey has included working with victims of violent crimes, childhood trauma, and individuals experiencing stress related to life transitions. These experiences have deepened my commitment to supporting others in their healing and growth.
My goals for you
My goal is to help you gain insight, develop coping strategies, and build the skills needed to navigate life's challenges with greater ease and resilience. I aim to empower you to make positive changes, improve your relationships, and enhance your overall well-being.
My first session with you
During our first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy and explore your goals. I will take the time to listen to your story, answer any questions you may have, and collaboratively develop a plan tailored to your unique needs and aspirations. This session is an opportunity for us to begin building a trusting therapeutic relationship and set the foundation for our work together.
