Through my educational training and professional experiences, I cultivated a strong background supporting Spanish & English-speaking adults (18+) facing life challenges and transitions. This includes but is not limited to dating/interpersonal relationship challenges, dating violence, trauma, abuse/neglect, stressful life transitions, adjustments, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, & PTSD.
I am a proud first-generation Latina graduate of California State University, Long Beach. I am passionate about collaboration, human connection, and holding space for healing in supporting you to cultivate positive change in your life. I utilize evidence-based, strengths-based, trauma-informed, harm-reduction, attachment theory framework to introduce narrative therapy, CBT, DBT, meditation, mindfulness, and art techniques. I would be honored to work alongside you to explore your strengths and actualize your growth to develop a profound sense of self and purpose.
Whether you are new to therapy or have prior experiences, I believe that each client's healing journey begins with developing a stronger sense of awareness to identify your unique individual needs. I believe people are innately worthy & when they're provided with a space to be seen, heard & understood; people intrinsically look inward for healing.
