My Approach.

  • I believe that each person's experiences are unique, regardless of their background. My aim is to understand your specific needs and assist you in achieving your desired improvements in life.

  • Working together, I will assist you in discovering your true identities and living a more fulfilling life. I will also help you navigate the internal, familial, racial, or communal systems so that you can live in accordance with your values and be your authentic self.

  • My approach focuses on helping you recognize your personal strengths, promoting self-discovery, and empowering you to advocate for yourself and express your true self. This will enable you to make better choices, confront challenges, learn positive coping skills, and create positive, long-lasting changes in your life. With 20 years of experience working in various settings such as the school system, state agencies, and private practice, I have worked with clients of all ages and backgrounds.

  • As a bilingual therapist with a multicultural perspective, I have spent 20 years working in the mental health field across three states. My approach is centered around meeting your unique needs. I work with individuals aged 8 and up, as well as professional women/mothers and families of all backgrounds, including but not limited to immigrants and those who are bicultural or biracial. My therapy incorporates various approaches that prioritize your experiences without judgment, and are culturally sensitive to your specific needs.

  • With extensive expertise in mental health and vocational counseling, I have worked with families, individuals, and professional women/mothers. As a Mexican American Latina and native Spanish speaker, I have successfully navigated the intersection of two cultures in both my personal and professional life, achieving a balance that allows me to better connect with and understand my clients.
