About this provider
Clients I Work With
I enjoy working with trauma and complex trauma survivors, neurodiverse clients, and clients with psychotic disorders. I am committed to providing person-centered, diversity-affirming care where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered to explore their experiences. My passion lies in helping individuals heal from trauma, complex trauma, and intergenerational trauma, reclaiming their voice and building the life they want to live.
Approach
My career has spanned outpatient substance abuse treatment, inpatient and intensive outpatient programs, and private practice across urban, suburban, and rural communities. These experiences have strengthened my belief in meeting each client with empathy, respect, and collaboration. Together, we’ll build on your resilience while developing new ways to cope, shift unhelpful patterns, and create a more balanced way of seeing the world. I use an integrative, individualized approach, drawing from CBT, ACT, EMDR, ERP, and DBT to provide therapy that adapts to your needs and goals. Most sessions start with a check in about what went well and what did not go well since the last session. We use that as a jumping off point to look at several options for where we want to focus for the day. I want to work with the whole person, not just the diagnosis. It's important to look at all aspects of a person to truly understand the best approach to support them.
Beliefs & Lived Experience
As a Hispanic American therapist, my lived experiences, along with my professional and educational background, have shaped my dedication to offering culturally sensitive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and neurodivergent-affirming therapy. I value honoring each client’s unique perspective while creating a therapeutic space where authenticity and growth are always welcome. I'm described as empathetic, calm and direct.
