About Me
My background
I have always had a passion to help others. I believe that therapy can be beneficial for anyone at many stages of life and for different types of issues. I believe that mental health is a very important part of health, well-being, healing, growth, positive perspective, and living a fulfilled life.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology. I have been working with individuals and families for over 10 years in office based therapy, school-based therapy, non-profits, enrichment classes, and group homes. I have specialized experience working with many types of mental health, emotional and behavioral issues. I have experience working with individuals with anxiety, depression, impulse control disorders, other mood disorders, life transitions and adjustments, young adult hood, perinatal mental health, and relationship concerns. I take a strength based approach we will work on your strengths and develop skills to manage your emotions and challenges. I use a wide range of psychotherapy modalities based on the individuals need.
I am an ally to the LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and LATINX community.
