About me
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, acculturative stress, immigration, and life transitions. I work with populations that are underserved, under- and un-insured, and historically marginalized. I love what I do because I support individuals when they are most in need and I partner with them through their journey of healing and growth.
My professional training in various theories and models led me to reflect on my beliefs about human nature, how problems develop within people, and their capacity to change. Taking an Adlerian approach allows me to counsel through my core beliefs: society/the dominant culture’s oppressive ways impact people and therefore a shift to a more egalitarian society needs to occur; with empathic, compassionate, and culturally responsive support, people can change, grow, and improve their lives for both self and social interest; and with culturally responsive education and support, society can do better with each other and for each other. I am a Latina bilingual clinician dedicated to ensuring social justice and advocacy through equitable access to mental health and well-being services. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), a Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapy professional (C-DBT), and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP), specializing in trauma.
The work I engage in supports individuals and groups from traditionally marginalized and under-supported communities. I encourage people to utilize mental health services to support their growth and overall well-being. I see the use of services as a way to improve social justice and advocacy measures.
