A Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a certified Financial Social Worker passionate about supporting individuals, couples, and families on their journey toward emotional well-being and financial freedom. My career began in community-based home visiting programs, where I had the privilege of walking alongside families as they navigated parenting, relationships, and systemic challenges. 

As an immigrant from Mexico and the first person in my family to graduate from college, I intimately understand the complexities of building a life without a clear roadmap. This personal journey inspires my work today, especially in empowering members of marginalized communities to take control of their emotional and financial futures. 

My own path toward financial wellness was shaped by necessity. I had to teach myself how to manage money, navigate debt, and build stability without a financial role model. There were moments of trial and error, but also powerful lessons in resilience, discipline, and growth. That journey taught me that financial wellness isn't just about numbers, it's about mindset, confidence, and access to support. 

As a bilingual, bicultural therapist and financial wellness coach, I bring cultural humility and compassion to my work, offering services in both English and Spanish. 

Now in private practice, I combine traditional therapeutic methods with financial social work to provide holistic support that fosters healing, growth, and lasting transformation.
