A Culturally Responsive, Compassionate Approach

Life’s transitions—whether in career, relationships, parenthood, perimenopause, menopause, or personal identity—can feel overwhelming. But you don’t have to navigate them alone. As a bicultural Mexican American therapist, fluent in Spanish, I provide a safe, supportive space where your unique experiences and challenges are seen, heard, and understood.

How I Can Support You

• Anxiety & Stress Management – Practical tools to cultivate calm and resilience

• Relationship & Family Dynamics – Strengthening communication and connection

• Self-Esteem & Confidence – Overcoming self-doubt and embracing your strengths

Why I Understand Your Challenges

• Bicultural Perspective – As a Mexican American woman, I understand the complexities of navigating identity, cultural expectations, and personal growth.

• Dual-Career Household – Balancing career, family, and evolving roles comes with unique challenges—I help women find equilibrium and fulfillment.

• Business & Professional Growth Experience – With 15 years in business and leadership before transitioning to therapy, I bring deep insight into workplace stress, career transitions, and personal development.

• Former School Counselor – My work with families, students, and parents deepened my understanding of family dynamics, parenting stress, and emotional development.
