Since my undergraduate studies, I have developed a passion for social justice. I wanted to work with people individually to help dismantle social constructs that limit their ability to live fulfilling lives. I am driven by connecting with clients and helping them unlearn unhelpful personal schemas. I have robust experience with adults in treating anxiety and depression. I have substantial experience working alongside the Latinx community, and I am excited to work with an array of diverse populations.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma recovery, depression, anxiety, and substance use. I am here to help you dive into understanding not only how to grow in the present, but also what pieces have come together to create the person you are today. We don't exist in a vacuum, therefore I take a holistic approach that works with the confluence of mental, social, and cultural factors surrounding each individual.

One of the most difficult parts of therapy is choosing to begin. Congratulations for making it this far. I would be overjoyed to walk alongside you as you continue on this journey of growth and self-love.

Are you experiencing persistent anxiety, rumination, panic symptoms, or perfectionistic self-criticism? Are you feeling like you are "too much?" I help clients navigate these feelings and build skills to cope. I can help you if you're experiencing difficulty with identity, purpose, or meaning in life or gender and/or sexual identity, coming out, or navigating relationships and family stress. I help clients experiencing grief from change — lost roles, relationships, identity shifts or life transitions. If you're experiencing stress related to college, academic pressure, or entering adulthood, I would love to work with you.
