You deserve a therapist who understands real‑world challenges, meets you with compassion, and helps you move forward with clarity and confidence. I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals and families across hospitals, schools, mental health facilities, public health, and community settings. My passion is helping both adults and kids feel seen, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change.

For many clients, life has included stress, trauma, health challenges, family conflict, or barriers that make it hard to access the care they need. My work has always centered on walking alongside people in those moments—whether through care coordination, counseling support, crisis navigation, or connecting families to essential resources. As noted in my background, I have extensive experience “educating and referring individuals to community resources… working with adults that have disabilities… and conducting resource needs assessments” (from the attached resume). This means I understand how emotional, social, and practical challenges overlap—and how to help you navigate all of them.

I work with:

• Adults seeking support with stress, anxiety, life transitions, chronic illness, or emotional overwhelm

• Children and teens who need a safe, steady space to process feelings, behavior challenges, or family changes

• Parents who want guidance, tools, and support

• Individuals facing medical, mental health, or social‑service–related barriers

• Clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, including Spanish‑speaking families

My approach is warm, practical, and deeply grounded in real‑life experience. I’ve spent years in roles that required trust, empathy, and strong clinical judgment—from “providing initial intake assessments… identifying barriers to receiving care” to “collaborative practice with physicians, nurses, case managers, therapists, and nutritionists” (from the attached resume). I bring that same level of care into every therapy session.

As a bilingual therapist, I offer sessions in English or Spanish. I understand the cultural nuances that shape family dynamics, identity, and emotional wellbeing, and I’m committed to creating a space where clients feel respected and understood.

If you’re ready to begin therapy for yourself or your child, I’d be honored to support you. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone—healing and growth are possible, and we can take that next step together.
