I believe you already have everything you need to help yourself heal and live the life you want to live. My role is to support and walk with you on this journey. I am bilingual (Spanish/English) and have worked in the US and Latin America helping individuals overcome trauma and learn how to take life struggles and turn them into springboards to create a better future. I specialize meeting each client where they are at and believe in a holistic approach working with the whole individual on individual; spiritual; and mental aspects. Lets work together to determine how to enhance your life in all areas!
