As a licensed therapist in Virginia, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on addressing stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth challenges. With expertise in addiction recovery, family systems, and multicultural counseling, I create a compassionate space for exploring self-esteem, communication barriers, and life transitions.
My practice is deeply rooted in understanding the nuanced experiences of individuals from diverse backgrounds. I'm committed to helping clients work through feelings of isolation, guilt, shame, and emptiness while developing stronger self-love and meaningful connections. Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients in addressing codependency, substance use challenges, and interpersonal conflicts.
I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with a broader range of individuals and honor their unique cultural experiences. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, empowering, and focused on helping you discover your inner strength and life purpose.
