With over two decades of combined professional and life experience across different states, I offer a unique, multicultural perspective in my role as a therapist providing trauma-aware care with a holistic, eclectic approach. My professional calling is to serve as an agent of change, guiding individuals toward self-awareness and healing. I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, allowing me to connect deeply with California’s diverse population.
