I’m a first-generation Latina and the oldest daughter in my family. I immigrated to the United States at 16 and bring both my personal and professional experiences into the care I provide today. As a bilingual Spanish- and English-speaking mental health provider, I feel deeply connected to communities that are often underrepresented in traditional healthcare.

I understand the stigma around mental health that can exist in many families and cultures because I’ve witnessed and experienced it myself. Through my own challenges, I came to recognize how important mental health and brain health truly are and how difficult it can be to find compassionate, culturally responsive care. That experience is what drives my commitment to providing accessible, supportive mental health treatment for individuals from all backgrounds.
