I received my bachelors in Sociology from the University of California Santa Barbara and received my Masters in Social Work from California State University San Bernardino. I am a licensed clinical social worker with specialized experience working with at risk youth and adults.

With empathy and compassion, I foster a safe, nonjudgmental environment to support my client’s emotional and social well-being.

Geriatric mental health: I hold a special certification as a social service designee with experience in treating the geriatric population.

Teens/ Adolescent: During my career as a wraparound clinician, I have and continue to provide mental health services to children and adolescents who have suffered from emotional and behavioral disorders, depression, trauma, anxiety, and other difficulties. I am also trained in Trauma Focused CBT, and seeking safety. I

Cultural competency: In addition, I also have extensive HIV/AIDS research and training in providing culturally sensitive micro practice with African Americans and women of color. As a bilingual provider who speaks Spanish, I have the capabilities of bridging the generational gaps between youth and 1st generation parents. I am well rounded, compassionate and strive to hold a high level of cultural competency and understand the unique struggles of immigration, victims of crime, racism, discrimination, systemic barriers, lack of resources, and the impact of economic hardships on mental health functioning.
