Introduction

Many of us reach a point where we realize we're carrying more than just our own experiences. Maybe you're noticing patterns in your relationships, struggling with anxiety or past trauma, or feeling weighed down by expectations you've carried for years. If you're ready to look beneath the surface, understand yourself more deeply, and become the person who changes the story for future generations, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. As an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without fear of judgment. Clients have described me as warm, accepting, and someone who brings humor into the therapy room. Please bring your humanness with you. I believe therapy can hold both deep emotional work and moments of laughter, lightness, and genuine human connection. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and rooted in the belief that every person's story deserves to be understood within the context of their life experiences. I draw from attachment-based, psychodynamic, family systems, and person-centered perspectives while incorporating evidence-based interventions to meet each client's unique needs. Together, we'll explore the patterns that have shaped you, strengthen your relationship with yourself, and build practical tools that support lasting change. I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, life transitions, identity development, relationship concerns, and the lasting impact of family dynamics. I also welcome Spanish-speaking clients and offer therapy in both English and Spanish, creating a space where you can express yourself in the language that feels most natural to you. Whether this is your first experience with therapy or you're returning after time away, my hope is that you'll find our work together to be a place where you feel seen, supported with compassion, and empowered to create meaningful change. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable, but you don't have to do it alone. If what you've read resonates with you, I'd love to connect and see if we're a good fit.
