Hi there, I'm Sarah!

Taking this step takes courage, and I’m glad you’re here! I provide a warm, supportive space in English and Spanish for individuals navigating anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma, and first-generation or acculturation experiences. Together, we’ll build on your strengths and work toward healing and growth.

My focus

I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions, with a special focus on teens and young adults facing identity, relationship, and intersectional challenges. Together, we’ll create a personalized approach that blends practical tools, emotional insight, and compassionate support.

My approach

I approach therapy through an intersectional, socially conscious lens, recognizing the unique factors that shape mental health. My style is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based, drawing from CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, and person-centered modalities to help you build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change.
