Over the past 20 years, I have worked in Crisis Intervention, Case Management, and now my Private Practice. Prioritizing my client’s overall well-being, I incorporate an eclectic approach according to their personal needs, mainly utilizing Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness. I utilize the Family Strength Based Model, which proposes that individuals have great capacity for growth. I explore how my client adapted to past circumstances and help them with issues in the present. Focusing on strengths rather than their deficits can motivate change. 

When I meet my clients, one of the common questions I hear the most is, how long would it take to see progress? I say that it all depends on how committed you are to showing up and progress is a process. 

I can offer services in Spanish if requested. It is important to not only speak the language but culturally identify with your struggles. I believe that each client is different therefore therapy will be different for every client. My goal is to relate to you in an authentic fashion while being culturally sensitive to your needs.
