A fun fact about me: I once went cliff diving in Mexico, an exhilarating experience that taught me the importance of facing fears head-on. On weekends, you'll find me watching sports, cheering on my favorite teams. My multicultural background and personal experiences have deepened my understanding of the importance of mental health and the unique challenges people face. Let's work together to create a healthier, happier you! I work with kids and adolescents who are dealing with social anxiety, low self-esteem, bullying, grief, or family loss like divorce. I understand how tough it can be for young people to navigate these challenges, and I'm here to help them find their way. My approach is all about creating a safe, supportive space where they can express themselves, learn new coping skills, and build their confidence. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and grief counseling, always with a person-centered and compassionate approach. My goal is to help them discover creative and effective ways to cope with their struggles and move forward with resilience.
