Biography
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience providing mental health services in settings ranging from elementary schools to emergency behavioral health assessment. I earned my Master of Social Work from UNC Charlotte and my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from Appalachian State University. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and originally from Mexico, giving me a strong understanding of Mexican and Latino cultural experiences.
I believe in meeting you where you are and creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable being open. I value your individual experiences, culture, strengths, and goals. My approach is collaborative, practical, and down-to-earth, with strategies you can use in everyday life. I provide culturally responsive care in either English or Spanish.
I begin by learning about your history, concerns, strengths, and goals. Together, we identify priorities and develop an individualized plan. As we work together, we explore patterns, process difficult experiences, build coping skills, and find practical ways to improve daily functioning. I regularly check in on your progress and adjust our approach as needed.
