***Currently serving patients located in California, Oregon, and Washington*** I am a social justice advocate; a believer in science; a fierce and overly-obsessed dog mom to two wacky pups; an immigrant; and steadfast in my conviction that we have a fundamental obligation to help one another if we have the means and capacity to do so. I embrace evidence-based and research-supported therapies, while also honoring the power of the therapeutic relationship and process. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, depression, Bipolar Disorder, anxiety and panic, grief and loss, interpersonal difficulties, and life transitions. I work with teens, adults, veterans, and monolingual Spanish-speakers and immigrants. I am fluent in English and Spanish, and can offer services in which language you feel most comfortable.

I know coming to therapy is a profound undertaking, and what I will ask of you in this process is not easy. Introspection and change are hard, and I strive to provide a safe, authentic, and collaborative environment that honors your story, experience, and identity with compassion and without judgment; I strive to be worthy of bearing witness to your story.
