About

I have experience working with diverse populations including individuals with anxiety, depression, addiction, chronic mental illness, trauma, survivors of human trafficking, relational issues, first generation and immigrant families. I have worked in different environments such as community mental health, faith based programs, and intensive care. I work through a trauma- informed lens that will help with mindfulness, awareness and self compassion. I am passionate about providing a holistic approach to help my clients understand how our physical, spiritual, mental and emotional wellbeing plays a role in our life satisfaction.

I am a certified yoga instructor, fluent in Spanish, genuine, and creative. I want to empower my clients to live a life filled with purpose, hope and joy. I am passionate about helping others to heal, feel empowered, and embrace life without shame or guilt.

Although I primarily focus on CBT, narrative therapy and mindfulness approaches to drive goals for treatment, I am skilled in exposure and response prevention therapy. I love my work and my hope is that our sessions can be an empowering
