About Me
I'm a first generation Latina (Salvadoran/Mexican roots) therapist who uses a race based trauma and social justice lens in my trauma treatment. I believe that all BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) deserves the opportunity to heal and thrive. I welcome people of all backgrounds and orientations. My practice combines compassion and science by using the latest researched best practices in treatment to help clients understand their problems and work toward living a life that's aligned with what's most important.
