Higher education can be overwhelming, confusing, exhausting, and scary. It can be filled with new adventures and new stressors. You may realize that your coping strategies are no longer working for you or that you are struggling to fit into a new environment. It is my honor to work with you through any challenges you are facing. I have particular experience working with women who are dealing with health challenges, anxiety, or who experience perfectionism or people pleasing.
I help people who dream about achieving a balance in life, who seek to be their true authentic selves but hold themselves back because of fear, uncertainty or trauma they've experienced. If you are living with this dream, but are currently experiencing depression, anxiety, imposter syndrome or feel as if you lack the ability to cope- I would love to work with you. It is my pleasure to serve individuals of different ethnic backgrounds that may speak English or Spanish. My approach is trauma informed and person-centered. I will support you by building a strong therapeutic relationship and working collaboratively on your goals, so that you may feel empowered to face your personal challenges. I believe that people are their own experts and as a therapist I am there to provide a safe, judgement-free space and assist in the process by incorporating evidence-based techniques and interventions. That's why I hope you give yourself the opportunity to experience therapy and all it has to offer.

Because of this experience, it is my mission to help you navigate this stressful time in your life and find the tools from within to leave you feeling calm, capable, and confident in whatever situation you may be facing.
