My Path as a Therapist

I began my career in school and community mental health, working as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). I supported children, teens, and families navigating emotional regulation, behavioral challenges, school stress, parenting difficulties, cultural adjustment, and trauma-related stress. This experience gave me a strong foundation in understanding behavior, building coping skills, and designing individualized interventions for lasting growth.

I later worked with youth in Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to provide trauma-informed, skill-based care and consistent support.

My holistic approach integrates advanced somatic trauma treatment, attachment work, and narrative therapy to process the impact of stress and trauma stored in the body. I also offer practical tools from CBT and DBT to help you build regulation, resilience, and lasting change while feeling grounded, balanced, and supported throughout your healing process. I tailor each session to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based methods to support lasting emotional wellness and growth through virtual therapy across California.

As a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist, I provide culturally responsive virtual therapy across California. I am neurodivergent, LGBTQ, and multicultural-affirmed. I accept Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and most PPO insurance plans, and I also offer low-fee therapy options for individuals and families who need financial support. My goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and collaborative space where every client feels understood, supported, and empowered to grow.
