About Me

I work from a Strengths based, collaborative approach to therapy.  I help people decide for themselves how they want to be in relation to the problem(s) they are facing.  Our conversations often reveal new possibilities so that people are able to locate their resources and make the changes they prefer in their relationship with themselves, their family, friends, and community.   I am committed to creating  a space in which people are respected, honored, and heard and their problems are given legitimacy without defining who they are.  Identities are forged through relationships with others and oneself, along with their resistance to the problem, not by the problem itself.  

I believe that family and community are integral aspects of our life.  It is difficult to thrive without the support of others.  Especially as challenges arise.  My experience is rooted in working with individuals and families from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds in Southern California and the greater San Antonio Community.  I respect and foster each person's unique definition of identity, family and culture.
