I am bilingual, multi-culturally competent, trauma-informed, and my experience is diverse. My greatest clinical strength is customization – I provide each client with an individualized therapeutic package, centered around your specific needs.
My theoretical orientation is based in Positive Psychology using a strengths-based, person-centered approach with a focus on achieving resilience. I believe passionately in the power of the individual to change. My background includes private practice, inpatient and outpatient hospitalizations, residential treatment centers, and community-based counseling.
Real change happens when behaviors change. You and I will know you are making progress as you begin to feel better and make meaningful behavioral adjustments. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, I teach clients about the link between thoughts, emotions, and behavior. Using this link, I will then teach you how to “hack” the system in reverse – that is; changes in behavior lead to changes in emotions and thoughts. Therapy is a process rather than a destination. So, the duration of time in therapy varies by individual, as do the results. Telehealth offers client's convenience, eliminates travel time, and increases access to therapy.

Great listener, very relatable and has the ability to drive me into deeper thought to process particular items and challenges.

He really took the time to listen to me and give me the best advice / techniques for me to get a handle on my anxiety. Never have I felt this strong mentally and I can’t thank him enough. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately it was difficult trying to connect with Jesus. No matter how I answered his questions, I was always giving the wrong information.
