We work together by addressing the root of your issues, exploring the interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors as a core part of my approach. This integrative method is combined with a therapeutic style that is disarming, unbiased, playful, compassionate, and intuitive. I focus on symptoms and internal processes, and I don’t use labels unless beneficial for the client or requested. I primarily refer to CBT, DBT, and Schema therapy in my practice. We explore how emotions and early childhood experiences shape adult behavior. My structured, solution-focused technique, influenced by my fine arts background, involves providing tailored creative tools and resources that benefit the client’s unique experience and existing potential. When working with teens, my primary focus is on the relationship, emotional regulation skills, attachment theory, play therapy, and art therapy. I help them practice autonomy and critical thinking. These approaches help build a strong, therapeutic alliance, inspire flexibility, and improve relationships with families.

Clients often leave sessions feeling lighter, and my services have led to symptom reduction and increased personal accountability through empowerment and patience. Clients have also commented on the polite ways I call them out! They also appreciate my faith in them, making them feel convinced that therapy works!

Además, hablo Español y me encantaría conectar con la comunidad hispana y latina. Navegar una cultura americana que enfoca en el individuo y poco en la familia o comunidad puede ser difícil. ¡No está solo! Le ayudo a integrar sus valores con los de otra cultura. También ayudo a padres de primera generación inmigrante a entender las experiencias únicas de sus hijos, navegando madurar y honrar los valores adaptados de la familia mientras descubren otros.
