.I am a bilingual Spanish-English Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) in Texas, with more than 30 years of combined experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges.

Originally from Bogotá, Colombia, I earned my degree in Psychology and a master’s degree in Family and Clinical Psychology. I practiced as a psychologist in Colombia for more than 20 years, providing individual and family therapy. After moving to the United States, I continued my professional journey in the mental health, behavioral health, and substance use treatment fields, where I have served diverse communities for more than a decade.

My therapeutic approach is humanistic, compassionate, and culturally responsive. I believe that every person has a unique story shaped by relationships, culture, family, life experiences, and personal strengths. Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to understand that story, develop greater self-awareness, heal emotional wounds, and create meaningful change.

I am especially passionate about working with individuals and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, and significant life transitions. As a multicultural and bilingual therapist, I also specialize in supporting immigrants and multicultural individuals and families who may be navigating acculturation, cultural identity, immigration-related stress, family transitions, and the challenges of building a life between different cultures.

Having personally lived and worked across cultures, I bring both professional experience and cultural sensitivity to the therapeutic relationship. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and strive to create an environment where clients feel respected, understood, and comfortable expressing themselves in the language and cultural context that feels most natural to them.

My goal is not only to help clients manage symptoms, but also to help them recognize their resilience, strengthen their relationships, develop healthier ways of coping, and move toward a more fulfilling and authentic life.
