My passion is to help individuals understand their experiences and struggles. Clients can expect a holistic integration of science and traditional approaches to promote a more balanced, vision-centered, and organized life. I enjoy helping clients produce a more productive life, reduce anxiety and depression, while helping them recognize and take control of their undesired hurts, habits, and hangups. As a Latino, I understand the acculturation process that immigrants experience and bring a balanced approach and insight.

I specialized in working with Sex Addiction. Some of my counseling techniques including (REBT) that explores the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I have been trained in Trauma Focused CBT, Self-Compassion in Psychotherapy, and Emotional Focused Therapy for couples (EFT).

I would love to work with you and help you increase healthy relationship with others and yourself. I understand that life can be difficult and you do not need to walk through this alone. It does take a village! Please feel free to email me or book with me directly on My Website!
