Welcome / Bienvenid@ 🌿

Empowering the Worried Well: A Journey of Strength, Values, and Growth 

If you’re someone who seems to “have it all together” on the outside but often feels overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck on the inside, you’re not alone. I work with hard-working, thoughtful individuals who navigate emotional stress, self-doubt, and the pressure to maintain balance, even when it doesn’t feel that way internally.

In my practice, I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space where you can explore your challenges, reconnect with your values, and discover the strength that’s already within you. Whether you’re seeking clarity, peace, or a deeper sense of purpose, we’ll work together to create meaningful and lasting growth.

As a bilingual therapist (English and Español) with progressive values, I honor your story, your culture, and your unique identity. I utilize evidence-based, values-centered approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), strengths-based psychology, and solution-focused therapy, among others, to support your journey toward self-acceptance, resilience, and connection.

Together, we can find your way through.
