"I am the youngest of four siblings, born into a family of Mexican immigrants. From a young age, I was exposed to the world of living in underserved communities and spent most of my summers traveling to northern states where my family would work for farmers. These childhood and adolescent experiences and the challenges and realities that came with them helped shape the person I am today. These formative experiences have shaped my perspective and instilled in me a deep empathy and understanding for individuals from different backgrounds and upbringings. As a therapist, I bring this personal narrative into my practice, creating a safe and inclusive space where clients can explore their own experiences and find healing. My aim is to provide compassionate and culturally sensitive support to help individuals navigate their unique journeys towards mental well-being."
