As a woman of color, I value the importance of alternative medicine and treating the mind, body, and spirit. This has led me to train in modalities that are holistic and attentive to the whole person. Additionally, working in community outpatient and inpatient clinics in the past I understand the complexity of life stressors and the impact they can have on various parts of our mental health and wellbeing.

I also specialize in multicultural issues and first generation issues. In addition, I understand the struggle and stress that arises when navigating culture clashes or the expectations of others in your work life and personal life. I bring expertise in cultural sensitivity not only through my personal experiences but also my professional experiences. Uniquely, I received a Minority Fellowship award through the National Board for Certified Counselor (NBCC). I have also done extensive research and presentations around serving Latinx people and providing culturally appropriate Mental Health and Wellness services. 

I have served as an adjunct professor teaching and supervising master and doctoral level student counselors at a Hispanic-Serving University. Accordingly, I have also provided consulting to students, faculty, and staff in medical school, pharmacy, and physical therapy schools.
