What inspired you to become a therapist?

Growing up, I saw how mental health was rarely talked about in the Latino community, and when it was, resources often weren’t accessible. I discovered my passion for psychology in high school, and that curiosity turned into a calling. I knew I wanted to break the stigma, provide education, and create a safe space for those who felt unseen. Becoming a therapist has allowed me to provide the resources and support I once saw missing, especially for Spanish-speaking individuals, and it’s incredibly fulfilling to walk alongside my clients as they find healing and strength.

What is your favorite self-care activity?

I love spending time with my family, relaxing at home curled up on the couch watching a good movie. Over the past year, I’ve also started getting into running and have completed a couple of 5Ks which still surprises me honestly! I also love walking around TJ Maxx and HomeGoods because honestly, nothing beats a little coffee and home decor therapy.

A Favorite Quote or Mantra.

When you’re nervous about stepping outside of your comfort zone, remind yourself: “It feels scary because its unfamiliar, not because I’m incapable.” ❤︎⁠

Fun Fact About Me.

I participated in the Miss Nebraska Latina pageant in 2019 and was the runner-up! It pushed me outside of my comfort zone and required me to face discomfort, build confidence, and trust myself. These are the same skills I support clients in developing through our work together.
