Hola and Welcome!
I am a Bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a virtual private practice in California. I provide online therapy to residents of California and Florida in English and Spanish.
I received my Master’s degree in Multicultural Counseling in San Diego, California and my Doctorate Degree in Marital and Family Therapy in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
Prior to working in private practice, I served as a professor at California State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH) and at the University of Southern California (USC) where I taught aspiring therapists in Marriage and Family Therapy graduate programs.
Clinically, I have worked at community mental health centers serving children, adolescents, and adults facing a variety of mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, sexual violence, trauma, self-esteem challenges, break-ups, grief/loss, and overcoming transitions in life. I also work with couples and help them break through communication challenges, reconnect, embrace their unique dance, and create rich fulfilling chapters with one another.
I have a passion for having intentional conversations that help people live more aligned, confident, whole, and fulfilling lives.
On my personal time, I absolutely enjoy being still near the ocean, taking in the sun rays, travel, and spending quality time with loved ones.
