I help adults who are tired of repetitive cycles of relationship struggles find closure and reinvent themselves after a breakup, separation, or divorce; or improve the quality of their current relationships. My clients experience post-traumatic growth around their relationship traumas as we move through the therapeutic process. I provide a safe space to address painful memories, including experiences of antagonistic or narcissistic relationships, as well as concerns related to sexual health and wellness.

I bring multicultural sensitivity and competence, especially in working with individuals from minority backgrounds. My practice is inclusive of people from diverse ethnicities, lifestyles, and backgrounds, including Latinx, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Recently, I’ve increased the focus on working with women.
