I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California. I have over 14 years’ experience in social services settings/mental health as a bi-lingual (Spanish/English) therapist working with a variety of individuals, children, families and couples from different backgrounds presenting issues ranging from domestic violence, substance abuse, and post-traumatic stress Disorder (PTSD) to school and family issues. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, eating disorder, post-partum depression, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My education and training is a Masters in Clinical Psychology from Bethany University, and a Bachelor in Psychology and Spanish from University of California Davis. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I use various therapy models to find what works best for you as the client. I will go at your pace and help you to feel safe to open up. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
