I am a Marriage and Family Therapy Intern completing my master's degree at Capella University, with a bachelor's degree in Psychology from Utah Valley University. Born in Argentina and raised primarily in the United States, I am bilingual in English and Spanish and enjoy working with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families from diverse backgrounds.
Before clinical training, I worked as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) supporting individuals with autism spectrum disorder, and I spent time at a women's shelter for survivors of abuse, serving as a translator for Spanish-speaking clients. Both experiences shaped my understanding of neurodiversity, the weight of trauma, and how much language and culture matter when it comes to healing.
My clinical work is grounded in Compassionate Inquiry (Dr. Gabor Maté), which emphasizes authentic presence and helping clients reconnect with the emotional truth underneath their experiences. Alongside this, I integrate neurobiologically-informed, body-based stabilization inspired by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, helping clients build nervous-system regulation and embodied awareness. For clients whose histories call for it, I am trained in EMDR, a phased, trauma-focused approach to reprocessing stored trauma memories. With couples and families, I work from a Structural Family Therapy framework, reshaping patterns, roles, and boundaries to create healthier connections.
I work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, autism, parenting challenges, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions, and with couples and families wanting to better understand one another and strengthen their bonds. I especially enjoy helping clients move through depression—whether it shows up as low mood, loss of motivation, feeling stuck, or the weight of experiences they're carrying—by addressing what's happening underneath the symptoms.
I believe everyone benefits from understanding how their body and mind work together, not only those coming in with trauma, depression, or anxiety. This kind of awareness is something I bring to every client, because I believe it's one of the most powerful tools for lasting change.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and strengths-based. I don't assume there's one right way to approach a problem—instead, I work alongside you to understand your experiences, relationships, values, and goals, and to identify changes that feel meaningful and realistic for your life. I believe people often possess far more resilience and capability than they recognize, and therapy can be the space where we discover and build on those strengths together.
Whether you're working through depression, anxiety, or trauma, navigating a life transition, facing parenting challenges, or wanting a healthier relationship with your partner or family, I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you as you build greater understanding and meaningful change.
