Approach
I am a psychotherapist passionate about helping couples and individuals navigate family and relationship concerns. I am committed to helping you build stronger trust, commitment, understanding, and empathy to improve your overall family dynamics.
I utilize the Gottman Method, which provides clear, actionable tools and a hands-on approach to relationship improvement. Concepts like “Love Maps” and understanding the “Four Horsemen” can significantly shift how you communicate and resolve conflict, creating a powerful framework for improving relationships, building deep emotional connections, and fostering healthy communication.
In addition to the Gottman Method, I am a Certified Discernment Counselor, having received my certification from the Doherty Institute in 2023. Discernment Counseling is a specialized, brief intervention for couples contemplating divorce.
I am also trained in ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), which focuses on resolving trauma, anxiety, and past emotional experiences in a quick and effective way.
A little about me: I was born in Lima, Peru, and moved with my family to Texas when I was 11. I am fluent in both English and Spanish.
