To behold beauty dignifies your life; it heals you and calls you out beyond the smallness of your own self-limitation to experience new horizons. To experience beauty is to have your life enlarged.”

- John O’Donohue, Beauty

  • I am a straight, cis-gendered, neurodivergent, white-passing Latino therapist specializing in helping adults and youth navigate the complexities of uncertainty, insecurity, deep-seated pain, and questions of identity. My therapeutic approach centers on cultivating a safe and affirming space where individuals can embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery, leading to a more liberated and authentic life.

    My practice is deeply rooted in liberation psychologies, recognizing the impact of systemic oppression and societal injustices on mental health and well-being. I honor and respect all genders, relationship orientations, experiences, and stories, fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all. As a white-passing, heterosexual male therapist, I am committed to dismantling internalized white supremacy and decolonizing my practice. I understand this is a lifelong journey requiring accountability and continuous effort towards an equitable and inclusive therapeutic environment.

    I have extensive experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including members of the queer community, youth, and trauma survivors. I understand the unique challenges faced by these populations and prioritize establishing a strong sense of safety and trust before delving into deeper emotional processing.

    My therapeutic style is collaborative and client-centered, empowering individuals to take an active role in their healing process. I utilize a variety of evidence-based techniques tailored to meet the specific needs of each client.

    I recognize the people and Indigenous tribes that cared for and lived on the lands we reside on. I hold gratitude and honor to these tribal caretakers still here and where I now live and bear the shared responsibility to care for the land and people.

  • I graduated with a Masters in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology.

    I am a licensed associate mental health therapist practicing in Washington state (MC61168747) and supervised under an approved licensed supervisor Sarah Dailey, LMFT (LF60188351).
