Provider Types

This is a group practice with multiple providers, including:

  • Clinical Social Work/Therapists

As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I provide compassionate, culturally responsive therapy to individuals navigating life’s challenges. With a background in medical oncology and experience in addiction recovery, I support clients facing complex emotional, behavioral, and health-related concerns.

I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Together, we will explore your experiences and develop practical, personalized strategies to help you build resilience and move toward emotional wellness.

I am fluent in Spanish and deeply committed to serving underserved communities, particularly the Latino population. I strive to ensure that every client feels understood within the context of their culture, identity, and lived experience.

Whether you are coping with a specific life stressor, managing a chronic medical condition, working through addiction recovery, or seeking personal growth, I am here to walk alongside you with empathy, insight, and support.
