its a balance between methods backed by research while recognizing of the limits of the existing research and valuing a person-centered holistic approach. I use a multiculturally informed framework & draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), & mindfulness based methods.

Create a space where you are free to be your whole authentic self, especially if you are someone who has experienced difficulty in finding such spaces in your life. Help you build awareness and understanding your emotions and behaviors, decrease distress, use more effective coping, and improve your communication and interactions with others.

Understanding, empathic, a good listener, genuine.

I specialize in working with millennials who are new to therapy. People I see often have challenging relationships with families of origin, difficulties with understanding and expressing emotions, first gen and immigrant experiences, race-based stress, ADHD, concerns with physical health, and mood disorders.

I currently only offer teletherapy. I am happy to provide services in English, Spanish, and of course Spanglish. Cultural humility has and always be a guiding principle in all the work that I do.
