As a licensed therapist in California, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and overcome challenges like social anxiety, workplace stress, and life transitions.
With expertise in addressing depression, trauma, and mood disorders, I create a compassionate and affirming therapeutic space. I'm committed to understanding each client's unique journey and supporting their path toward healing and personal growth. My approach is collaborative, empowering, and tailored to meet individual needs.
Fluent in both English and Spanish, I offer culturally responsive care that honors diverse experiences and identities. I'm particularly passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and those seeking a progressive, inclusive therapeutic environment.
My goal is to help you build resilience, discover your inner strength, and create meaningful connections—both with yourself and others. Together, we'll work to transform challenges into opportunities for profound personal transformation.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
