As a licensed clinical social worker, I am passionate about supporting individuals in identifying their own path toward their mental health goals. With a Master's degree in Social Work with an Emphasis on Hispanic Culture from Our Lady of the Lake University, I bring a diverse background and skill set to my therapy practice.
My approach
My therapeutic approach is centered around meeting people where they are. I have worked with clients in various settings, including community-based, outpatient, inpatient, and correctional environments. Drawing upon modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing, I tailor my approach to each individual's unique needs and circumstances.
My focus
I specialize in working with individuals dealing with a wide range of mental health challenges, including ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, trauma, and more. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to process their experiences, develop coping skills, and work towards positive change.
My communication style
Clear, open communication is a cornerstone of my practice. I aim to create a collaborative relationship with each client, actively listening to their concerns and providing honest, empathetic feedback. Together, we will identify your strengths, set achievable goals, and navigate the path to improved mental well-being.
My journey to mental healthcare
My journey to mental healthcare began with a deep desire to make a positive impact in people's lives. Inspired by my own experiences and those of loved ones, I pursued a career in social work to gain the knowledge and skills needed to support others in their healing process. My multicultural background and education have equipped me with a unique perspective and sensitivity to the diverse needs of my clients.
My goals for you
My primary goal is to empower you to lead a fulfilling life in alignment with your values and aspirations. Through our work together, I aim to help you gain insight into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors; develop effective coping strategies; and build resilience in the face of life's challenges. I am committed to providing you with the tools and support you need to achieve lasting positive change.
My first session with you
During our first session, we will focus on getting to know one another and establishing a strong therapeutic relationship. I will listen carefully to your concerns, gather relevant background information, and work with you to identify your treatment goals. This initial meeting serves as an opportunity for you to ask questions, express your expectations, and determine if we are a good fit to work together on your mental health journey.
