Theoretical Orientation:

I work primarily from a client-centered, multicultural, and trauma-informed lens integrating therapeutic elements from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based approaches. I focus on holding a space for students to feel grounded, supported, and inspired to work towards their respective values and improve their mental health.

Professional Interests:

My professional interests include working with Latinx, BIPOC, and first-generation college students; trauma and stress, mindfulness, depression, anxiety, cultural identity issues, resiliency, loss and grief, men’s issues, life transitions, and adjustments. I enjoy providing individual counseling, group counseling, and consultation services in English and Spanish to students and faculty/staff.
