FOUNDER & LCSW

I am a caring counselor with 20+ years of experience working with individuals, families and couples. I provide a safe and welcoming environment, in person and online, in which people can express themselves and learn ways to make positive changes in their lives. When I meet with a person for the first time, I build trust by connecting to the client individually. I believe that you are the master of your life and my role is to provide you with the tools to live your life to the fullest. My vision for my community is for mental health to be addressed and accepted, for people to receive the best mental health services and to receive access to healing.

PSYCHOTHERAPIST

I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. I believe in viewing individuals as a whole and guiding them with evidence-based, strength-focused approaches to foster self-awareness and encourage positive change. My passion is helping others rediscover their potential, overcome barriers, and reestablish their lives. With specialized training in trauma-informed yoga (RYT-200) and mindfulness, I use these tools to when needed to enhance my counseling practice. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for healing and growth, welcoming individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. I am a bilingual (Spanish) and LGBTQ+ ally practice.

PSYCHOTHERAPIST

I am a Mental Health Counselor with a Master’s in Education & Mental Health Counseling. I have a strong background in a wide range of areas, such as working with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, substance abuse, and teen mental health challenges (school avoidance, school conflict, academic challenges, and self-esteem.) Utilizing a trauma-informed lens, I encourage my clients to process their experiences, rebuild their sense of self-worth, and learn healthy coping strategies. Through a collaborative partnership, we can identify and address underlying issues that may impact their ability to lead a balanced and purposeful life. My goal is to empower clients to break free from cycles and create a life of security and fulfillment by developing the skills and tools needed to thrive in their life journey.

Are you feeling anxious lately more than usual? It can be difficult to ask for and admit you may need help. It is essential to connect with someone you can share a safe place with. For several decades, I have been intimately connecting to the recovery process. It is my deepest desire to help people of all ages, including trauma survivors, those struggling with addiction and anxiety-related disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and their families. I apply a client-centered approach using mindfulness-based techniques and CBT. Together, let's begin the process of healing both mind and body!
