As a professional of color and daughter of immigrant parents, my passion is to connect, strengthen, and empower communities of color to healing and resiliency in a culturally attuned and compassionate therapeutic process. I believe therapy is a collaborative process between patient and therapist. I have extensive experience working with adolescence, adults, parents, couples, and families developing and maintaining, healthy and fulfilling relationships. My services are offered in English and Spanish through tele-health. I seek to create a warm, attentive environment, to nurture an opportunity for therapeutic connection.
My approach is to incorporate treatment interventions and modalities that will work best for you, whether it’s utilizing Mentalization, Attachment, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Informed Care, or other client-centered approaches.
I believe there is great strength and resilience in each of us. Embarking in this process is a beautiful opportunity to work with someone who will provide you with the support and tools you need to create change, be more present, mindful, and grounded. I can help you reconnect to your inner strength so you can heal, grow, and thrive.
