From a young age, I found that people often felt comfortable confiding in me. I realized that being heard and understood by someone else can be rewarding. I have always enjoyed listening, and I’m naturally empathetic. I believe everyone deserves a space where they can vent and feel supported. Over time, I also saw a real need in my community for Spanish speaking therapists for individuals who can express themselves in their first language and feel culturally understood. I became a counselor, so that I can offer a welcoming, compassionate space for anyone.

I work best with adults navigating life challenges including depression, anxiety, and healthy relationships with others. My approach is to offer an environment where individuals feel comfortable discussing these challenges.

I am most excited to work with individuals from diverse backgrounds. Every person’s story, culture, language, identity, and life experience shapes who they are.

You don’t have to have all the answers when you begin therapy. It’s okay not knowing exactly what you want or where you’re headed. Sometimes it can be challenging to know where you want to begin in your therapeutic journey. Also, choosing to prioritize yourself takes courage it means you believe you deserve peace, understanding, and healing.

I chose to work at Thriveworks because it emphasizes accessibility and flexibility for clients by offering sessions both in person and online. I also resonated with Thriveworks’ mission to provide high quality care with warmth, and respect. It felt like a place where I could practice in a way that honors empathy, and connection for each client.

What inspires me most as a therapist is witnessing the transformation in people’s lives from the challenges they face at the beginning, to the growth they build toward their goals. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing clients gain clarity, strength, and as they reach their aspirations. Helping someone feel heard, supporting them through their mental health journey, and getting to celebrate each milestone whether that be big or small is the foundation of my inspiration

Client's can expect to be welcomed with a safe, non-judgmental approach with the focus to be building trust and rapport.

I focus on discussing what brought you to therapy and what you're hoping to achieve. There's no rush to share everything at once; you set the pace. Together, we'll explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals in a supportive and safe environment.

I deeply value empathy and strive to understand your unique experiences and perspectives. Listening is something I truly enjoy, and I am committed to getting to know your thoughts, feelings, and aspirations. Our work together will be a collaborative process, where your voice is central, and your growth is the priority.

I enjoy listening to music, spending time with my family, and watching T.V shows.

What defines me is my belief that kindness and respect have the power to truly impact others.
