I believe we are all doing the best we can, given our life experiences and circumstances, while at the same time understanding the capacity we each possess to build and strengthen the skills needed to create the lives we want to live.
My approach
I use an integrative approach to best honor each person's individual needs and strengths. I utilize a relational approach while pulling in elements of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Internal Family Systems Therapy.
My focus
I have experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, complex trauma, relational struggles, and life stressors/life transitions. I am also passionate about working with the Latinx community around acculturative stress, systemic trauma, and identity development as well as women's health, including abusive/unhealthy relationships.
My communication style
I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can be their genuine and authentic selves. I work to build genuine relationships with my clients and allow the relationship to be an avenue for change and growth.
My journey to mental healthcare
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who earned her master's degree from the University of Chicago's School of Social Service Administration. My educational journey at the University of Chicago from October 2012 to June 2014 prepared me to enter the field of mental healthcare with a strong foundation.
My goals for you
My goal is to empower you with the skills and self-understanding needed to create the life you want to live. Through our work together, I aim to help you navigate challenges, heal from past experiences, and build resilience.
