Our therapists provide couples & marriage counseling in Riverside, CA

Hi, I'm a therapist with a Master of Social Work who believes meaningful change happens through authentic connection. As a Hispanic therapist, I value the role culture, family, and lived experiences play in healing. My own experiences with loss and adversity have shaped the compassion I bring to my work. Drawing from relationship-based approaches, including DIR/Floortime, I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment principles, and DIR/Floortime. My goal is to help clients develop insight, build resilience, strengthen relationships, and gain practical tools to navigate life's challenges with confidence. 

Life can bring moments of uncertainty, loss, and change, but you do not have to face them alone. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered. When you're ready, I invite you to take the next step and begin the process of healing, growth, and self-discovery.

I am an associate clinical social worker (ACSW) with 3 years of experience providing client-centered, trauma-informed care. I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and identity- or relationship-related concerns. My work is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practice, and I strive to create a nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported as they work toward emotional stability and personal growth.

I have my master’s degree in social welfare from the University of California, Berkeley. My approach integrates cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, talk therapy, and trauma-informed care. When appropriate, I incorporate creative, play-based, and expressive techniques to support emotional processing in a developmentally responsive way.

Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I offer a collaborative and supportive environment where your experiences are honored, and your goals guide our work. Together, we will build insight, resilience, and practical coping skills to help you move forward with clarity and confidence

I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience helping individuals strengthen the mind-body connection to support emotional healing. I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, and borderline personality disorder, and I look forward to expanding my practice to include children in the future. My approach is collaborative and compassionate—I listen closely and partner with you to find strategies that fit your unique needs, helping you feel grounded, empowered, and more connected to yourself.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Kentucky and have a background in nutrition. I take a holistic approach that integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and solution-focused therapy with mindfulness, breathwork, and movement.

Healing is a journey, and you don’t have to face it alone. I provide a compassionate, supportive space where your experiences are honored. Together, we can begin exploring a path toward a more grounded, authentic, and fulfilled version of you.
