I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) trauma-informed therapist and the heart behind Cardenales Healing Center. I specialize in supporting first- and second-generation individuals, especially young adults, children, and families navigating the complex layers of trauma, identity, neurodivergence, and cultural assimilation.
My path to this work began long before I became a therapist. I’ve always known I was meant to help others heal. Growing up as a highly sensitive and neurodivergent child, I often felt like I lived between worlds: born in Mexico, raised in San Benito, Texas, and learning to exist in spaces that didn’t always know how to hold all of who I was. My personal experience and education has given me the confidence to know that I can help you. I integrate a range of therapy modalities into my practice, such as EMDR, Sandtray, Expressive Arts, Mindfulness, and in the future, Plant Medicine.
Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. At Cardenales, we move at the pace of your body, your story, and your truth. We work on creating space for all parts of you to be heard, witnessed, and empowered.
