I am a bilingual Spanish-English psychotherapist and social worker holding a Master’s Degree in Social Work (M.S.W.), specializing in mental health.
I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which has been proven to be very effective in a wide variety of situations, particularily with traumatic memories.
I have extensive experience working with trauma survivors, women, men, seniors, people with disabilities, people of colour, refugees, LGBTQQ2S+ in California and Canada. In my extensive practice, I provided therapeutic services for people addressing issues such as trauma, family conflict, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, poverty, institutionalized racism, intercultural conflict, sexuality, internalized homophobia, coming out of the closet, intergenerational conflict between parents and children, grief and loss (anticipatory and complicated loss, and moral injury).
My approach is informed by core skills such as strength-perspective case management, advocacy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (C.B.T.), Brief Therapy and Motivational Interviewing (M.I.), anti-homophobia, anti-racism, and anti-oppression. I am also experienced in supporting people experiencing intersectionality in society, e.g., LGBTQQ2S+, refugees, immigrants, and people of color.
In my spare time, I enjoy the simple pleasures in life, such as music, dancing, meditation, close contact with nature, friends, good coffee, and comedy.
