I am a Latinx therapist and I know what it's like to have a therapist that doesn’t understand common challenges that a female-Latinx person in the USA faces. I understand the many roles we all have and how complex we are as I have many roles to juggle (mother, daughter, wife, sister, professional, etc.) and value your complexity. I am passionate about serving the community and helping others live purposeful and optimal lives. I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic techniques to best serve you in meeting your goals.

I have extensive experience in providing intensive mental health psychotherapy to the severely mentally ill, adult, and geriatric population. I have worked with the terminally ill andor homebound older adult population in providing individual and family end-of-life counseling and case management. Additionally, I have also worked as a group therapist in a psychiatric inpatient locked facility for the severely mentally ill population.
 
After becoming a licensed clinical social worker, I also began my training career as well, at a Skid Row shelter. During my time at a Skid Row shelter, I served the mental health community and advocated against the criminalization of homelessness. As a trainer, I provided culturally sensitive training on Mandated Reporting and identifying mental illness courses. I also served as a field instructor for MSW students. I have worked for several years as a certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist in providing individual and group psychotherapy for Los Angeles County residents.
 
In addition to individual therapy, I also provide clinical supervision, professional behavioral health consultation, training, and support groups. Please reach out if you are ready to start your journey.
