What's My Approach to Therapy?
My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and rooted in collaboration. I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural clinical social worker with experience supporting children, teens, and young adults in a variety of settings, including schools, residential programs, and clinics. I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you feel comfortable and understood. Together, we explore your strengths and build skills that support emotional wellness and everyday functioning. I draw from evidence-based methods such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), play therapy, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused CBT to tailor our work to your needs and goals.
