Bilingual and Bicultural psychotherapy services for Individuals, Children, Families and Couples.

The relationship between psychotherapist and client is of utmost importance in my practice- feeling understood, accepted and not judged. With my extensive experience in the field both as a practitioner and a teacher, having a foundation of knowledge of human psychological development and unconscious processes is requisite to being able to listen to and understand what people are expressing, both within their awareness and what may not be accessible to them without professional help. I work with each person based on what their individual needs are.

I take it that you are searching for a psychologist, or an effective mental health professional to assist you with some psychological issues that are keeping you from becoming as successful as you want to be. If so, look no further! I can help! I can hep you, if you are looking for assistance to cope with irritating thoughts and feelings, or with behaviors that are now interfering with your daily functioning! I specialize in couple, family, and relationship issues, using the dynamic Emotionally Focused Therapy {EFT} skills and techniques that espouse a theory of close adult relationships in a way that no other theory does. I can help you also if you are looking for help with depressions, anxiety, anger management, family conflict, parenting skill, teenage, career, education, and school related issues. My commitment to the helping profession obliges me to see your goal as my primary focus, and work using a wide ranging experience and expertise to help you achieve your goals.

Let's combine forces. You are the expert on you! I bring evidence-backed theoretical approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and psychodynamic therapy, which seek to transform your thoughts and reframe your situations, so that you become equipped with applicable skills to address panic, shame, loneliness, negative self-image, grief, and depression. Therapy is relational, but it is goal-oriented too. It is my hope for you that counseling will be a safe place in which you develop coping mechanisms, create unshakable inner peace, cultivate compassion and forgiveness, and find freedom from abusive and/or addictive patterns. Now that you know about me, I look forward to getting to know you! Best wishes in your pursuit of well-being and happiness!

Offering therapy that is insight oriented as a first step to healing. A structure of non-judgement, consistency and a strong client-therapist relationship are important pieces. This relationship is used as a tool to help make sense of and improve various emotions, thoughts, behaviors and patterns that may have become disruptive or problematic. Through guided exploration, the goal is to understand their influence on the way in which we experience ourself in the world.

I work with clients to create an environment that feels supportive, helpful, and safe. I tailor the therapy experience to each person. Sessions can be whatever you need them to be in that moment. There's no "right" way to do therapy! I treat clients holistically, as I believe that physical, mental, and social health are all connected.

As an integrative, multidisciplinary therapist, I offer a blend of evidence-supported and holistic approaches to help you achieve emotional and spiritual wellness. Specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, I provide personalized therapy with the aim to unearth barriers and foster a deeper connection to your true self. In our work together, we'll use holistic and integrative therapy to help you first "put out the fires" in your life and learn to keep them at bay so that you can connect with your inner self, align with your values, and find your purpose. Many people come to me for help with anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life changes, looking for practical tools to "fix" their problems while working toward longer-term emotional balance, self-compassion, and a fulfilling life. I can help you navigate your emotions in the here and now, understand past challenges so they can stop plaguing you, build resilience, and ultimately move forward with intention. I understand the courage it takes to seek support and a desire to lead a more fulfilling life. Together, we can navigate challenges, uncover your strengths, and work towards goals. Your journey to self-discovery and healing is unique, and I'm here to guide your every step. Let's embark on this transformative path together, moving from pain to celebrating empowerment.

Some of human suffering is about the way we experience the events of our lives rather than the things themselves. Therapy offers an opportunity to bring awareness to our experiences and change our emotional relationship to them rather than try to change the events themselves. By thinking of events in this way, we are able to gain a sense of control in our lives and positively experience and influence its direction. If we believe that we have the power within us to achieve health and happiness, then the events in our lives that cause us pain and suffering can be seen as an opportunity to learn about ourselves and experience personal growth.

Please note that I am currently only offering therapy via a HIPAA compliant Telehealth service that offers excellent video and audio, allowing you to engage in therapy from the comfort and convenience of your own home. I view therapy as a collaborative experience aimed at helping patients become the best version of themselves. I love working with patients who are motivated to make change and excited to learn more about who they are and how they navigate the world. I have a plethora of experience working with individuals and couples who have mood disorders, anxiety related disorders, complex physical and sexual abuse traumas, and those who have difficulty adjusting to life changes. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which is an active, structured, and goal oriented form of therapy that aims to uncover and change maladaptive patterns of thoughts and behaviors. Additionally, I practice EFT for couples and EMDR, CPT, PET, and WET for those with symptoms of PTSD. I'm glad to provide you more details on all modalities. Whether you're returning or going for the first time, therapy can be scary. I pride myself on creating a warm, accepting, and empathetic environment that aids patients in opening up and exploring themselves. I am direct with patients and encourage them to face things that make them uncomfortable so they're able to grow. If you're interested in a free phone consultation, please visit the website link under my photo. You will be directed to a calendar that shows all my upcoming availability for a phone call and be able to schedule your call there directly. I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist with experience supporting people through difficult life transitions, trauma, anxiety therapy, and depression. These issues never exist in a vacuum, and they almost always become entangled with each other, feeling overwhelming at times. You can expect transparency, authenticity, and empathy when meeting with me. I tend to use a personalized approach to therapy, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy to help challenge negative core beliefs while building positive, sustainable coping techniques. Therapy can be daunting, but it’s also a journey. I invite you to bring your strengths, challenges, hopes, and fears, and share them in a safe, empathic space as we work together.
