Biography

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges and transitions. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work and have experience providing services in community-based and residential settings, working with diverse populations across the lifespan. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, adjustment difficulties, behavioral concerns, family conflict, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. Whether supporting a child learning emotional regulation skills, a teenager navigating identity and peer stress, or an adult facing major life changes, I tailor my approach to meet each client’s developmental and individual needs. My therapeutic style is collaborative, culturally responsive, and strengths-based. I integrate evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed skills, and trauma-informed care. I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. As a bilingual clinician (English/Spanish), I am committed to providing accessible and culturally attuned care. My goal is to help clients build insight, strengthen coping strategies, and move toward greater confidence, stability, and emotional well-being.
