My experience as a trauma informed therapist has been with adults, adolescents, children, and expecting moms experiencing bouts of anxiety, depression, antepartum anxiety/depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, PTSD, personality disorders, substance abuse disorders, eating disorders, food insecurity, and homelessness.

Through this work I realized the importance of meeting my clients where they are emotionally and further understanding social, economic, and environmental factors of their lives.
I am trained in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I take a trauma-informed and client-centered approach in my therapeutic work.

Currently, my focus is working with teens and their parents/caregivers to help clients reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. I also work with moms that are experiencing bouts of anxiety, depression, antepartum anxiety/depression.

I provide a safe environment for my clients to feel autonomy of expression and techniques that help reduce their symptoms and foster a balanced life.

I’m bilingual Español/English (Limited in person sessions available in Newport Beach)
