About
As someone who has worked within complex healthcare and social systems, I understand how external barriers impact our well-being and therefore focus on helping clients build strategies that restore balance and self-direction.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience in behavioral health hospitals and care coordination. I bring a trauma-informed and culturally responsive lens to therapy. As a Latina clinician, I recognize how culture, identity, and lived experiences shape our emotional well-being. I help clients navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, trauma, and major life transitions find healing, stability, and renewed confidence through compassionate, practical support. My goal is to help build emotional balance, self-understanding, and sustainable empowerment.
I received my Master of Social Work from Loma Linda University. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, combining evidence-based methods like CBT and mindfulness with trauma-informed care. I focus on helping clients gain self-awareness, develop coping strategies, and create sustainable change through compassion, structure, and empowerment.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel uncertain, but it’s a courageous choice. I hope that you feel supported, understood, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and strength. Together, we’ll work toward healing that feels genuine, sustainable, and truly your own.

I believe healing begins with feeling genuinely heard and understood, and I strive to create a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where we build on your strengths, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker (ACSW) with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California and a bachelor's degree in Psychology from California State University, Northridge. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, seeking healthier coping strategies, or looking to better understand yourself, I'm here to support you in working toward your goals.
I take a collaborative, person-centered approach, tailoring treatment to each client's needs. Drawing from CBT, MI, strengths-based, and solution-focused approaches, I help clients understand unhelpful thought patterns, develop coping skills, and build on their strengths. Clients can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space to foster resilience and growth.
Wherever you are in your journey, you deserve a space where you feel heard, supported, and understood. Together, we'll work to navigate life's challenges, build on your strengths, and help you move toward the life you envision. I look forward to supporting you when you're ready to begin.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
