Introduction

Hola! Great to meet you. I’m so glad you’re here! Congratulations on taking this important step towards your journey of self-discovery. As we embark on this therapeutic adventure together, my main focus is to cultivate a warm and supportive relationship built on openness, curiosity, compassion, trust, and acceptance. Creating this connection is vital, especially as we prepare to explore deeper emotions and beliefs. This will help you process emotions, build resilience, and ultimately find a sense of personal fulfillment and well-being. I’m here to support you every step of the way!. One of the most fulfilling parts of therapy for me is empowering my clients to reach their goals and find greater joy in life. I completely understand how difficult it can be to find a therapist who truly resonates with you and can walk alongside you on your wellness journey. People seek therapy for many different reasons, and some challenges can feel quite complex. Whether you’re searching for a straightforward solution to a difficult situation or looking for guidance to navigate deeper emotional experiences, I’m here to support you every step of the way. I truly enjoy counseling women, children, adolescents, parents, and adults from diverse cultural backgrounds. My approach is eclectic, blending evidence-based, client-centered, and attachment-based perspectives. This allows us to uncover your unique strengths and navigate through life’s challenges together. TREATMENT MODALITIES I believe that each individual who comes to therapy is unique, so I tailor my approach holistically based on your specific needs, strengths, qualities, and personal values. I embrace the idea that there isn’t a “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. I offer integrative therapy that incorporates evidence-based techniques proven to be effective for various challenges. I am trained in several modalities, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Play Therapy, and other creative experiential interventions. Together, we’ll find the best path forward that resonates with youRather than telling you what to do, I like to explore all the possibilities, empowering you to make informed decisions that resonate with your heart. So how will we achieve this together? We’ll create a personalized plan, known as a Treatment Plan in therapy, designed to guide your healing journey. MY ROLE AS YOUR THERAPIST I am a Trauma, Patenting and Play therapy expert. As your therapist, my goal is to create a warm and trusting relationship where you feel completely comfortable exploring your personal experiences. I understand that mental health struggles can often feel invisible; we may appear put together on the outside while facing a storm within. My focus is on collaborating with you to understand your experiences, emotional challenges, values, interpretations of situations, current limitations, and the obstacles ahead. My hope is that your time in therapy brings you joy, hope, and a renewed desire to rise above your circumstances. I’m dedicated to helping you find the resolutions you seek, and I’m here to support you every step of the way on your journey.
