Let’s face it, seeking help probably one of the most vulnerable and difficult steps a person can take. Why?

Because it’s hard to acknowledge that…

I dislike who I am.

I feel disconnected from my partner.

I am still in love with a former partner despite their hurtful behaviors.

I crave to connect with others but can’t seem to do so.

I have difficulties regulating my emotions and expressing my needs.

I always put myself last, which makes me resent those I love the most.

I feel like a fraud at work/school and I am terrified that my boss/professors will realize I don't belong.

To escape painful aspects of my life, I engage in impulsive behaviors that are taking a toll on what matters most.

I firmly believe we are only as healthy as our relationships…

So, I’m passionate about helping people improve their relationships—with themselves and others. There’s no mental wellness without relationship wellness, my approach focuses on both. Your mental health is as important to me as the satisfaction you gain from your relationships. We explore ways in which your relationships can support your healing and how your healing can improve your relationships.

I am passionate about women's mental health because...

Women’s mental health deserves focused, intentional attention—especially when we consider how hormones and reproductive health shape emotional wellbeing, identity, and relationships across the lifespan. From menstruation to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause, hormonal shifts can deeply impact mood, energy, desire, cognition, and nervous system regulation.

Too often, women’s symptoms are minimized, misattributed, or dismissed by medical and mental health providers—labeled as “stress,” “anxiety,” or something they simply need to push through. This dismissal can leave women feeling unseen, doubting their own experiences, and carrying the burden alone.

Mental health is inseparable from how women relate—to partners, children, families, work, and themselves. When hormonal changes and reproductive health concerns go unacknowledged, relationships often absorb the strain. When women are understood, supported, and properly resourced, their relationships have the opportunity to feel more connected, compassionate, and resilient. In therapy, we make space to explore these experiences with depth, validation, and a relational lens—honoring both the body and the emotional world it informs.

In our therapy together, here’s what I pledge to you…

I provide a trauma-informed, culturally-sensitive approach. 

Healing does not happen in a vacuum. Our experiences are shaped by culture, identity, family systems, and the broader social contexts we move through. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, which means I prioritize emotional safety, choice, collaboration, and empowerment in every session.

I am mindful of how trauma—both personal and collective—can impact the nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. I also approach therapy with cultural humility, honoring how race, ethnicity, gender, immigration history, spirituality, and intergenerational experiences shape how you understand yourself and your relationships. You are the expert on your lived experience, and my role is to walk alongside you with curiosity, respect, and care.

I am very intentional and transparent about the way I conduct therapy sessions. 

You are welcomed to voice concerns and provide feedback at any time. If you think our goals are misaligned or maybe you have questions regarding the approaches I use, we can discuss it. 

I want you to feel comfortable and at ease, safe, and without fear of judgment.

My role is not to judge, and if you ever do feel judged by me, I’m happy to process this. I believe that were are only able to heal in an environment that is compassionate and provides unconditional positive regard. 

I value our sessions as YOUR time, and we will move at YOUR pace. 

The frequency and duration of sessions are totally up to you. We can meet for the traditional weekly one-hour session, or we can do any variation that fits your schedule and therapeutic goals.

I provide each and every one of my clients with an individualized treatment style. 

I am well aware that no size fits all and that each and every one of my clients has a unique story. I tailor my style and approach to ensure you get the help you need. 

I always welcome your feedback and strive for this to be a collaborative relationship.

I like to talk with clients not just about what’s bringing them to therapy, but also the process of therapy. We are in this together, and I am ready to walk alongside you as you embark on the journey of healing and reinvention.

I am a bilingual (English & Spanish) Latina psychotherapist and have ample experience working with culturally diverse individuals, couples, and families. I am deeply humbled by the clients that have trusted me with their most profound fears and pains. I don’t ever take my work lightly or for granted.

If you are ready to improve your life and relationships but maybe are not sold on doing therapy with me, we can schedule a complimentary 10-minute phone consultation to ensure that we are a good fit. This will be your opportunity to briefly share what motivates you to seek therapy, what modality are you looking for (individual, couples, or family), and ask me any questions you’d like.
