Life can be full of uncertainty, change, and everyday challenges. I work with individuals and incorporate their life experiences into our work to understand the complexity of life. As a Mexican-American Latina, I firmly believe there is beauty in incorporating our values and culture into our healing. Therefore, I provide Spanish culturally appropriate services. I specialize in working with folks with trauma such as survivors of crimes, migration trauma, and/or those experiencing grief. I strive to create a comforting space for individuals that are starting or continuing their journey into self-exploration in therapy. View 7 Photos I am trained in Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and soon in Trust Based Relational Intervention. In addition, I have worked with individuals struggling with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD. I am capable of providing services to adolescents, adults, and families. My focus in our work is to work alongside you to aid you in identifying your current struggles and empower you to use existing tools within or assist you in developing new ones. Collaboratively, we will learn to understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that ultimately can lead you to make decisions you find best to live with.
