I believe individuals are powerful storytellers and creators of their own lives. Through this lens, I support clients in reframing their narratives to foster empowerment, healing, and growth.

Creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen and accepted is at the heart of my work. I approach therapy with compassion and deep respect for each person's individuality. I greet my clients with empathy, meeting them where they are and valuing their unique experiences.

I’m passionate about working with young adults and individuals as they navigate life transitions and challenges. I have experience supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community and people with diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds.

My style is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and grounded in a person-centered/humanistic framework. I also integrate techniques from narrative therapy, CBT, ACT, and DBT to support healing, growth, and meaningful change. I also offer sessions in Spanish. To me, language is more than a tool for communication; it’s a reflection of identity, emotion, culture, and history, and it shapes the way we experience the world.
