As a Latina therapist, I have ample experience assisting the LGBTQIA+ population, immigrant people, and couples having difficulty becoming parents or transitioning to parenthood. I offer a warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative approach for clients to find well-being. I have also worked with the elderly population to help them discover new meaning in life. Helping individuals find empowerment and joy in their new phase of life is a true joy as a provider. I am passionate about helping people increase their support systems, self-esteem, and assertive communication.

My interests outside of work are going for walks, doing Zumba, reading, swimming, going to different farmer's markets, going to my local library, supporting community events, and dancing.
Drink plenty of water.

I recharge by spending time at the park with my family.
I had a lizard growing up. If its tail falls off, they grow a new one. I still get inspired by this knowing that we too can grow after something fails.
